Local conditions
What affects structural drying in Arvada
How Colorado's climate, building types, and history shape this service locally.
Call Now (833) 502-4258Recent history in Colorado
The September 2013 Front Range floods damaged thousands of homes. Events like these are why structural drying needs fast, thorough work and careful documentation for insurance.
Freezing weather and burst pipes
Hard freezes are one of the most common causes of structural drying in Colorado. Pipes in exterior walls, attics, crawl spaces, and unheated garages can split, and the leak often starts only when the pipe thaws. The American Red Cross advises keeping the heat at 55°F or higher when you are away and letting faucets on exterior walls drip during extreme cold.
Hail-damaged roofs
Hail is common in Colorado. Bruised or cracked shingles may not leak until the next heavy rain, so slow ceiling stains after a hail season are worth checking with a moisture meter.
Dry climate, hidden leaks, and monsoon storms
In Colorado's dry air, surfaces dry quickly and can hide water trapped under flooring, behind cabinets, or beneath a slab. Sudden summer storms also bring flash flooding that overwhelms flat roofs and drainage.
- Water that soaked into walls and floors
- Leaks inside wall cavities
- Wet subfloors under finished flooring
