Water Damage Restoration Denver
Emergency Restoration Hub provides fast, 24/7 water damage restoration in Boulder, CO for homes and businesses. From burst pipes and basement flooding to storm damage and sewage backups, our trained technicians extract the water, dry the structure, prevent mold, and restore your property — and we coordinate directly with your insurance to keep the process simple.
What to do in the first hour of water damage
The first hour matters more than almost anything else. While you wait for our crew, these steps help limit the damage:
- Stop the source. Shut off the main water supply if a pipe or appliance is leaking.
- Cut the power to affected areas if you can do so safely — never enter a flooded room with live electricity.
- Move valuables and furniture out of the water to higher, dry ground.
- Document everything with photos and video for your insurance claim before cleanup begins.
- Call for emergency extraction — the sooner it starts, the less water reaches walls and subfloor.
