24/7 Emergency
Storm & Flood Damage Recovery in Loveland, CO
The opening is closed, the water is extracted, materials floodwater touched come out, and the structure is dried and rebuilt in that order. The opening is closed first, with tarps or board-up, so the building stops taking on water. Floodwater is extracted, and the porous materials it touched come out rather than dry, since it crossed ground outside. The structure is dried and re-read, and the rebuild waits until the readings and the roof both allow it.

Often needed alongside
- Emergency Water Extraction
Standing water is pumped and extracted around the clock, before it climbs the walls and soaks the subfloor. Same-day response where coverage allows.
- Structural Drying & Dehumidification
Sealed air movers and dehumidifiers bring framing, subfloor and drywall back to a measured dry standard, with daily readings logged from inside the material.
- Sewage & Contaminated Water Cleanup
Sewage and black-water losses are contained, the materials the water touched are removed and disposed of, hard surfaces are disinfected, and the space is dried to a reading.
Frequently asked questions
What are the lakes around these neighborhoods?
Worked-out gravel pits. The river gravels here were quarried for decades and the holes left behind were allowed to fill, so what looks like an ornamental lake is an excavation that went below the water table and is now open to it.
Why does that affect a basement several lots back?
Because the pit and the ground water are the same body. Digging into the river gravels opened a direct connection to the aquifer, so the level in the pit is the level under the surrounding neighborhood, not just at the water's edge.
What sets that level?
The river and the ditches, which means it is highest in late spring when the mountain snow is coming down. A basement here responds to the runoff season rather than to rainfall, and that is predictable enough to prepare for.
