24/7 Emergency
24/7 Emergency Water Extraction in Greenwood Village, CO
Standing water is pumped and extracted around the clock, before it climbs the walls and soaks the subfloor. Same-day response where coverage allows. Free water is pumped and extracted first, from hard floors and out of carpet and pad, before it climbs further into drywall and subfloor. The wet edge is metered and marked while the water is fresh, and drying equipment goes in the same day, because extraction is where the size of the job is decided.

Frequently asked questions
Why does a pool room damage the rest of the house?
Because of what it pushes outward. A heated pool keeps a room permanently humid, and in a climate with six freezing months the walls and ceiling around it are cold on the other side, so that moisture reaches cold surfaces in the surrounding structure and condenses there.
Where does the damage usually show?
Outside the room rather than in it. The pool room itself is built to be wet and generally copes; what suffers is the framing in the walls and ceiling around it and the rooms on the far side of those, where nothing is designed for that load.
What is checked first?
Whether the room is being ventilated as it was meant to be. These are built with equipment to control the humidity, and when that stops working or is turned off to save running it, the room starts exporting moisture into the building. That is usually the whole story.
