One of the biggest mistakes people make is assuming that once the visible water is gone, the problem is solved. Unfortunately, water damage doesn’t work that way.
We’ve been inside homes where a minor dishwasher leak led to mold growing inside the walls.
We’ve seen cases in Lakewood where water from a roof leak seeped into the attic insulation, only for the ceiling to collapse months later.
And we’ve helped homeowners in who thought their carpets were dry—until we pulled them back and found soaked padding underneath, already developing mold.
If water isn’t completely removed and dried properly, it will continue to cause hidden damage behind walls, under floors, and inside your home’s structure.
That’s why we never just “clean up the water”—we make sure your home is fully restored and safe.
From the moment we arrive at your home, our priority is stopping the damage, drying everything properly, and restoring your home as quickly as possible.
First, we locate and stop the source of the water. Whether it’s a burst pipe in, a flooded basement, or a sewage backup, we need to make sure no more water is coming in.
Once the source is under control, we extract all standing water using industrial-grade pumps and vacuums.
We’ve worked in homes where there were inches of water across hardwood floors in Littleton, and we know that the faster we remove it, the better chance we have of saving flooring, drywall, and furniture.
After extraction, we bring in high-powered dehumidifiers and air movers to dry out everything that was affected.
Even if things feel dry, moisture can be trapped inside walls and subfloors, which is why we use advanced moisture meters and infrared cameras to detect hidden water pockets.
Sanitization and mold prevention come next. If water has been sitting for more than 24 hours, bacteria and mold spores are already starting to grow.
We treat affected areas with antimicrobial solutions and ensure your home is safe before moving to the final phase—repairs and restoration.
If drywall was damaged, we replace it. If flooring was ruined, we restore it. If cabinets or structural elements need rebuilding, we handle that too.
Our goal is simple—when we’re done, your home should look like the water damage never happened.
We get calls every single day from homeowners dealing with unexpected water damage, and while some disasters are unavoidable, many can be prevented with the right precautions.
✔ Burst pipes due to freezing temperatures or age – Pipes in older homes in Wash Park (80209) are especially vulnerable in the winter. Insulating pipes and letting faucets drip during freezing temps can prevent this.
✔ Appliance leaks from washing machines, dishwashers, or water heaters – We’ve seen water heater failures flood entire basements in Highlands Ranch (80130). Replacing your unit before it reaches 10-12 years old can prevent this type of disaster.
✔ Roof leaks caused by heavy rain, hail, or missing shingles – In places like Parker (80138), where storms hit hard, annual roof inspections can catch small leaks before they turn into major problems.
✔ Sewage backups that bring hazardous waste into your home – We’ve responded to sewage overflows in downtown Denver condos (80202) where entire units had to be sanitized. Having a backflow prevention valve can help avoid this nightmare.
✔ Foundation cracks that let in groundwater over time – Many homes in Lakewood and Golden sit on expansive soil, which can cause foundation shifting. Sealing cracks early can prevent water intrusion.
✔ Slow, unnoticed leaks that cause mold, wood rot, and structural damage – A small leak under a sink in Castle Pines might go unnoticed for months—until the cabinet is full of black mold. Routine plumbing inspections can catch these issues early.
