Dried-In Stage of a New Home

Hello Tim,

Could you explain to me what the "dried-in" stage means?

Thanks,
Lynne

Lynne,

It means the point at which your house is unaffected by rainwater. The roof must be on, windows and doors installed and at a bare minimum felt paper or some other rain barrier applied to the outside walls.
