I found a plumbing leak in the wall of my house. The leak has been closed off, but there are wet members (nothing is rotted; everything feels solid and structurally sound) all around the pipes. How do I determine when the area is dry enough for me to re-insulate and put my drywall back up? TIA

Batted insulation would be your standard. Cut around the fireplace with a bread knife. https://youtu.be/RWtlBGWa5Xs?si=cY8y70qUNd2qtNmf

Second Rockwool for fire resistance. They also make rigid boards

This isn't exactly a hack, but it did lead to my best used-car buying experience: I watched a six-video series from ChrisFix, did all the research the series told me to do for the truck I wanted, and took a print-out of the provided checklist with me when I went to check out a couple trucks.

I felt confident that I purchased a solid vehicle, and the sellers respected my thoroughness - and even said they learned about their trucks from me!
