What we handle
Every job starts the same way — stop the water, pull out what is saturated, and get air moving before mold has a chance to start.
Emergency water extraction
Truck-mounted and portable extractors pull standing water out of carpet, pad, hard floors and subfloor before it migrates into walls.
DetailsFlooded basement cleanup
Spring snowmelt, a failed sump pump or hydrostatic pressure through a foundation crack. We pump out, extract, and dry the slab and framing.
DetailsSewage backup cleanup
Category 3 water carries pathogens. Full containment, removal of porous materials that cannot be sanitized, then disinfection and drying.
DetailsCeiling water damage
Water coming through a ceiling means something above is still leaking. We find the source, open what is saturated, and dry the cavity.
DetailsStructural drying
Air movers and LGR dehumidifiers sized to the space, with daily moisture readings logged until the materials actually read dry.
Mold remediation
Mold can start on wet materials within 24 to 48 hours. If growth has already begun, we contain the area before anything is removed.
DetailsWhy Cheyenne homes flood
Cheyenne sits above 6,000 feet on the high plains. The weather here creates water problems that do not look the same as they do at lower elevations.
In winter the cause is usually a line that froze and split. Our guide to frozen pipes in Cheyenne covers how to stop that happening and what to do in the first five minutes if it already has.
- Snowmelt against foundations. Frost drives deep into the ground over winter. When the thaw comes, meltwater cannot soak into frozen soil, so it runs along the foundation line and pushes through any crack it finds.
- Winter pipe bursts. Long stretches below freezing reach pipes in crawl spaces, exterior walls and unheated garages. A burst supply line can release hundreds of gallons before anyone notices.
- Basements that hold water. Basements and subfloors trap moisture after a storm or a thaw, and hidden damage develops behind finished walls long before anything shows.
- Sudden summer storms. High plains thunderstorms drop a lot of water fast. Window wells, hatchways and clogged downspouts send it straight into the lower level.
- Older housing stock near downtown. Original plumbing and foundations in the older parts of the city fail differently from the newer builds out toward the edges.

What happens after you call
No guesswork and no surprises. Here is the sequence on a standard water loss.
We talk it through
Where the water is, where it came from, and whether it is still running. If the valve is still on, we walk you through shutting it off.
Inspection and moisture mapping
Meters and thermal imaging find water behind walls and under flooring, so nothing saturated gets closed back up.
Extraction and removal
Standing water out first, then removal of carpet pad, drywall or insulation that cannot be dried in place.
Drying and documentation
Equipment stays until readings confirm dry. You get photos, moisture logs and a written scope for your insurer.

Every hour of delay spreads the damage and raises the cost of putting it right.
Common questions
How fast can someone get here?
Water damage is treated as an emergency, so calls are answered around the clock and a crew is dispatched as soon as we have your address and know what we are walking into. Tell us whether the water is still running when you call — that changes what we bring.
What should I do before the crew arrives?
Shut off the water at the main valve if you can reach it safely. Stay away from wet outlets, cords and anything electrical in standing water. Lift what you can off wet carpet. Do not run a household vacuum on standing water.
Will my insurance cover this?
Sudden and accidental water damage — a burst supply line, a failed water heater, an appliance that lets go — is generally covered under a standard homeowner policy. Groundwater flooding usually needs separate flood coverage, and sewer backup often requires a water backup endorsement. We document the loss with photos, moisture readings and a written scope so your adjuster has what they need.
How long does drying take?
Most residential water losses dry in three to five days with equipment running continuously. Dense materials like hardwood, plaster and concrete take longer. Equipment stays until moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, not until a set number of days has passed.
My basement floods every spring. Is that the same job?
The cleanup is the same, but recurring snowmelt flooding points at something structural — grading that slopes toward the house, a failed sump pump, window wells without drainage, or cracks taking on hydrostatic pressure. We will tell you what we see while we are there so it is not a yearly event.
Do you handle sewage backups?
Yes. Sewage is Category 3 water and carries pathogens, so it is handled differently from clean water — full containment, protective equipment, removal of porous materials that cannot be sanitized, then disinfection and drying. Do not attempt a sewage cleanup yourself.
