Water damage rarely shows up at a good time. In Colorado, frozen pipes, spring snowmelt in basements, and summer hail can all let water into a home. The first 24 hours matter most.Start with safety: shut off power to wet areas and close the main water valve to stop the source.Document everything with photos and video before moving anything, since your insurer will want a record.Then dry fast. Drywall and subfloors wick water within hours and mold can start in 24 to 48 hours. Colorado's dry air hides moisture inside walls and under floors, so professionals use moisture meters, thermal imaging, dehumidifiers, and air movers.
Keep damaged materials until they are documented, and don't use a household vacuum on standing water.
