It can take days for several reasons. (based on my 15 years in aviation and some understanding of how slow the cogs move)
1. They will need to clear the ground and ensure all previous material is removed, including the tie downs.
2. They will need to check and replace the stuff blown away
3. There could be a lead time for the material
4. They will need to lay and tie down the new pad.
5. It will need to be tested and certified (this step alone could take a few days)
