Water Damage Restoration FAQs
What should I do right after I find water damage?
Stop the water if you can by shutting off the main water valve. Turn off power to wet areas if it’s safe to reach the breaker. Take photos and video, move valuables and furniture out of the water, and stay away from sewage. Then call Revive at (720) 340-3499. We’ll start extraction and drying and document everything for your claim.
Does homeowners insurance cover water damage in Colorado?
Most policies cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as a burst pipe, a failed water heater or a broken supply line. Damage from slow leaks over time, poor maintenance or groundwater flooding is often excluded, and flood damage usually requires a separate flood policy. We document the loss and work directly with your adjuster to help you get the coverage you’re owed.
Can I dry water damage myself with fans and a shop vac?
A small surface spill, yes. But water wicks into drywall, insulation, subfloors and under cabinets, where box fans can’t reach it and you can’t see it. Without moisture meters and commercial dehumidifiers, hidden moisture often stays behind and leads to mold and warped floors. A free inspection tells you for sure.
How long does it take to dry out a house after water damage?
Most residential jobs take about three to five days of drying with commercial air movers and dehumidifiers. We take moisture readings every day and only remove equipment once walls, floors and framing are measurably dry, not just dry to the touch.
Will you have to tear out drywall or carpet?
Only what’s necessary. Often we can dry walls in place or remove just the bottom section of drywall (a flood cut). Wet carpet pad usually has to be replaced, and anything soaked by sewage or other contaminated water has to come out for safety. We explain every removal before we do it.
