Water damage happening now? Do this first


If it’s safe to do so, these steps can help reduce additional damage:

  1. Avoid electrical hazards. If water is near outlets/appliances, turn off power to affected areas (only if safe).
  2. Stop the source if possible (shut off water supply for plumbing leaks).
  3. Take quick photos/videos for your records and insurance claim (if applicable).
  4. Move valuables to a dry area and keep kids/pets away from impacted rooms.
  5. If sewage/contamination is suspected, avoid contact.
  6. Call for mitigation to contain the loss and begin stabilization.

What is water mitigation?


Water mitigation is the immediate response to water damage. The goal is to prevent further loss by removing water, controlling moisture, stabilizing materials, and reducing the risk of secondary damage.

Mitigation is different from restoration:

  • Mitigation focuses on stabilization and damage prevention.
  • Restoration focuses on repairs and returning the property to pre-loss condition.

WATER-DAMAGE-RESTORATION

Water damage mitigation for Denver homes and businesses


We provide mitigation services for:

  • Homes, condos, apartments, and basements
  • Offices, retail spaces, and commercial buildings
  • Multi-room losses and widespread water intrusion

We’ll help you stabilize the situation and clearly explain what comes next—drying, sanitizing, and restoration (if needed).

When you may need emergency water mitigation

Water mitigation is often needed after:

  • Burst pipes or supply line failures
  • Water heater failures
  • Appliance leaks that spread across floors
  • Overflow events (sink, tub, toilet)
  • Basement water intrusion
  • Storm-related water entry
  • Sewage-involved events (avoid contact and call immediately)

If you’re unsure how far water has spread, we can assess affected areas and recommend next steps.

What water mitigation may include


Depending on the situation, mitigation may involve:

  • Water extraction and removal
  • Moisture control and drying coordination
  • Dehumidification
  • Cleaning and sanitizing (when appropriate)
  • Hidden moisture checks (thermal imaging where appropriate)
  • Documentation for insurance (when applicable)

Our water mitigation process


Safety check + damage assessment

We assess the source of water, evaluate hazards (including contamination risk), and identify affected areas—including potential hidden moisture.

Containment + stabilization

We take immediate steps to reduce spread and protect unaffected areas when possible.

Water extraction and removal

We remove standing water to stabilize the space and reduce additional damage.

Moisture control, drying + dehumidification plan

We coordinate drying and humidity control to help dry impacted materials thoroughly.

Cleaning + sanitizing (as needed)

When appropriate—especially after contaminated water events—we clean and sanitize impacted areas.

Documentation + next-step recommendations

We document what was affected, what was done, and what the recommended next steps are (including restoration repairs if needed).

Equipment & verification 

We use moisture detection and drying equipment to help locate impacted areas, guide stabilization, and document progress. 

Water mitigation vs. water restoration: what happens after mitigation?

Mitigation is designed to stop the loss and stabilize the property. Once the space is dry and stabilized, some situations require repairs (drywall, flooring, cabinets, insulation, paint).

If repairs/restoration are needed, we’ll walk you through options and next steps.
