Does wet drywall always need to be replaced?

No. Clean-water exposure caught within 24–48 hours often dries in place with air movers and cavity drying, keeping walls intact. Replacement becomes necessary when the water was contaminated (Category 2/3), when the wall stayed wet past the mold window, or when the board has swollen, sagged, or lost its paper bond. A moisture meter — not appearance — makes the call.

What is a flood cut and why is it 24 inches?

A flood cut removes the bottom section of drywall (commonly to 12–24 inches above the water line) to expose the cavity for drying and to discard the part that wicked water. It is standard for contaminated water and for walls with wet insulation. The height follows the moisture readings up the wall, not a fixed rule — cutting to the next stud line keeps the repair clean.
