Wiggins, Colorado Restoration Services

Wiggins is a rural community in Colorado, home to roughly 1,900 residents, and like every community it has its share of burst pipes, basement floods, kitchen fires and hidden mold. Water Restoration gives residents and businesses one number to call for all of it: (888) 755-3821, answered around the clock and routed to a restoration company that serves ZIP code 80654.

Wiggins's properties range across farmhouses, manufactured homes, lake and cabin properties, outbuildings and homes on well water and septic systems. Rural properties bring their own issues: well pump and pressure tank failures, septic backups, and seasonal homes that sit unheated and unwatched.

Common property damage problems in Wiggins

Local conditions in Wiggins follow the broader pattern across 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:

• Under-sink leaks that go unnoticed for weeks
• Basement seepage, sump pump failures and sewer backups through floor drains
• Frozen and burst pipes during winter cold snaps, especially lines in exterior walls, attics, garages and crawlspaces
• Pinhole leaks in copper lines inside walls
• Split supply lines that only start leaking once a hard freeze thaws
• Hail-punctured roofs and skylights that leak during the next rain
• Space heater, fireplace and chimney fires during cold weather
• Furnace malfunctions at the start of heating season
• Flood water that was never fully dried out of walls and floors
• Meltwater seepage into foundations each spring

First steps for Wiggins property owners

The first hour determines how much can be saved. While a crew is on the way:

• If you see or smell mold, avoid disturbing it and keep the area closed off until it is assessed
• Photograph and video the damage before moving anything
• 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
• 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
• Open your insurance claim early; mitigation is a policy condition and delays can reduce what is paid
• Move rugs, furniture legs and valuables out of the water and off wet floors

When and where damage happens in Wiggins

Every property type in Wiggins 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.
