Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Westminster, CO
Sealed air movers and dehumidifiers bring framing, subfloor and drywall back to a measured dry standard, with daily readings logged from inside the material. The wet area is sealed, air movers and dehumidifiers run as one system, and the material is read at marked points every day against a dry standard from an unaffected room. The equipment leaves on the readings rather than on a date, and the final readings are logged so the rebuild starts on a documented dry structure.

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.
- Mold Inspection & Testing
An independent assessor confirms whether the assembly that got wet is actually dry, whether growth started while it was not, and how far it reaches.
Frequently asked questions
What are the ditches running between the houses?
Irrigation laterals, carrying water to land downstream under rights that predate the subdivision. They were kept when the farmland was developed because the water still has to get to where it is owed, so they run through the neighborhoods. The ditch companies predate the city and they are still operating entities with their own rules.
Why is a basement wet in July here?
Because that is when the laterals are running. They carry water through the dry months and seep along their length, so the ground beside them is at its wettest in the season when a household would least expect a water problem.
Can a ditch be piped or moved?
Only with the ditch company's agreement, and that is a formal process rather than a conversation. The water rights are separate from the land, so a householder owning the ground a lateral crosses does not own what runs in it.
