Water can damage your home as well as your belongings. Most of the time, it strikes when you least expect it. You have to act fast, which is why you need a reliable water damage restoration provider on your side.
Water damage can come from any number of issues. The most common form of water damage comes from leaks and pipes. Leaky pipes can lead to dripping water that might cause more damage over time.
You might not even realize there is a leak until suddenly you have mold or a big water damage spot – or worse, the pipe breaks and leads to extensive damage and flooding. Pipes that are old and not well maintained can cause problems.
In Colorado, our winters get very cold. If your pipes are exposed or not properly insulated, you might have a burst pipe, which can lead to flooding damages as well.
Other causes of water damage in Colorado include flooding or water that makes its way in because of snow. If the snow gets too heavy on your roof and creates a snow dam, you could experience water damage in this area as well.
Some water damage is more extensive, and the professionals can help with any type of water damage restoration – big or small.
How Does Water Damage Restoration Work?
No matter what caused your water damage, there are several steps to follow.
First, the water needs to be stopped. If you are not quite sure where the leak is coming from or you have a water emergency, you may need to shut off the water until you can identify and correct the issue. If you have a burst pipe, turn the water off as quickly as possible.
Before the water is turned back on in that area, you need to identify the water issue and get it fixed. This is typically handled by a plumber, but it’s an important part of the process.
Once the flow of water has stopped, start getting belongings out of the way. Furniture and valuables need to be moved away from the water. Of course, be sure to do so safely, especially if there is electricity in the area.
Once you get the immediate things moved, you can start removing the water. In some cases, you won’t have standing water. But if you do, that water has to go before any repairs and cleanup happen.
Removal can be done with fans and special equipment that helps to evacuate water from the space. Once you get the water out, start the drying process. Again, fans and airflow can be helpful here.
Once the water is dried, it’s time to inspect the damage. You need to use a water damage restoration company to help here. They can most likely also provide an estimate that includes what the damages are and what restoration is going to cost.
During the inspection, they will consider cleanup needs and possibly note any mold that could be a threat from the water as well.
Restoration Begins

Water damage certainly is not something that people want to deal with. But when it happens, Trujillo’s Cleaning Company can help get your home back to its former glory.
The challenge with water damage is that it can lead to mold damage as well. When we check the damage, we also inspect for mold. If it is present, we will take the necessary steps to remove mold safely from the affected area.
Mold removal needs to be handled very carefully. If it’s not, the mold can spread and cause an even bigger mess. It’s also important to consider things like ventilation and containment during any mold removal process.
Our teams are trained to handle this. Let the experts help!
Over the last several years, mold has been discovered to be a leading cause of many illnesses previously attributed to other causes.
