Water Damage Restoration - Done in the Right Order

Each stage is performed by the independent restoration contractor the call reaches; IICRC S500 is the industry standard that describes them.

  1. Step 1: Extraction

    Standing water is pumped out before it can travel further into drywall, subfloor, and framing. Speed here changes the scope of everything that follows.

  2. Step 2: Moisture mapping

    Meters read the material, not the air, so the wet edge is found even when the surface already looks dry. The map sets what has to come out and what can stay.

  3. Step 3: Drying

    Air movers and dehumidifiers run as a closed system until readings inside the material reach a dry standard, not until a calendar date arrives.

  4. Step 4: Verification

    The same points are re-read before equipment comes out. Rebuild starts only after the structure, not just the surface, is confirmed dry.

What drives water into buildings in Commerce City

Our local pros provide water damage restoration services in Commerce City and the surrounding area, including Buffalo Mesa and Reunion. A South Platte city northeast of Denver where nearly three quarters of the housing has gone up since 1990, on ground that mixes new subdivisions with long-standing industry.

Housing stock

Building in Commerce City clusters in the mid 2000s: the median unit dates to 2005, with 27.7 percent finished before 1990. Most of the stock is recent construction with full basements, on soils that swell when they take on moisture. Foundations along this part of the Front Range are built assuming the backfill stays relatively dry, so anything that wets the ground beside a wall repeatedly is a structural question rather than a nuisance.

Climate and water risk

Of the 14.11 inches that arrive in an average year, 2.35 fall in May; the 1991–2020 normals come from a gauge 4.7 miles away at BRIGHTON 3 SE. May brings the wettest month at barely over two inches, which describes a semi-arid climate and understates the mechanism. Intense spring cells deliver a large share of the year in an hour onto crusted ground that sheds nearly all of it, and the river responds to conditions well upstream.

Common water damage problems in Commerce City

  • Ground that expands when it is wetted, under foundations built for it to stay dry
  • Crusted semi-arid ground shedding intense spring cells almost entirely
  • A river responding to rainfall and snowmelt well upstream of the city
  • New subdivisions adjacent to long-standing industrial ground with altered drainage

Frequently asked questions

We water the beds along the house. Is that a problem?

Close to the wall, yes, and it is one of the few near-universal pieces of advice along this range. These soils swell when wetted and the foundation was built assuming the backfill stays relatively dry, so irrigation beside the wall keeps that soil wet continuously rather than occasionally. Moving heads and drip lines back several feet, and extending downspouts well clear, costs almost nothing and does more than most structural work.

Our house is new and the ground beside it has sunk.

Backfill placed during construction consolidates over the first few years, and on a new house that is expected. What matters is the shape it settles into: a trough sloping back toward the wall collects roof runoff and delivers it straight to the foundation, which is exactly what this soil should not get. Topping up and regrading so the ground falls away is inexpensive and it is the single most useful thing to do.

Does the industrial ground nearby matter to us?

Mainly through drainage rather than anything else. Long-standing industrial sites often have graded ground, fill, and drainage arrangements that predate the subdivisions around them, and those can route water in ways the current surface does not suggest. If a lot floods without an obvious cause, what is upstream of it and what that ground used to be are worth understanding before spending money on the house.
