Common property damage problems in Red Cliff
Property owners in Red Cliff deal with the same regional risks found throughout Colorado. Colorado homes deal with freeze-thaw cycles that burst pipes and crack foundations, heavy wet spring snow, some of the most damaging hail in the country along the Front Range, and wildfire risk in foothill communities. Finished basements are common, which is where much of the state's water damage ends up. Problems tend to peak during winter freezes and the spring hail and snowmelt season, but plumbing failures and appliance leaks happen in every month of the year.
The calls crews receive most often from this area include:
- Toilet and tub overflows
- Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
- Ice dams that back melting snow under shingles and into ceilings and exterior walls
- Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
- Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
- Fire-suppression water after a kitchen or electrical fire
- Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
- Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
- Meltwater seepage into foundations each spring
- Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors
Before the crew arrives
The first hour determines how much can be saved. While a crew is on the way:
- Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors
- Shut off the main water valve if the source is a plumbing failure, and turn off power to the affected area if water is near outlets or appliances
- Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
- If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
- Do not run the HVAC system if ducts or the air handler got wet, and do not use household fans on sewage or flood water
- Photograph and video the damage before moving anything

When and where damage happens in Red Cliff
Every property type in Red Cliff has its own failure points, which is why crews map moisture with meters and infrared cameras before deciding what to remove.
The coldest stretches of winter produce a surge in frozen and burst pipe calls, and the spring thaw brings the groundwater problems that follow. Home fires peak in winter, when space heaters, fireplaces and furnaces are running and holiday cooking and decorating add risk. Winter condensation on windows and in attics, followed by spring moisture in basements and crawlspaces, gives mold two seasons to get started.
