Serving Johnstown
Structural Drying & Dehumidification in Johnstown, CO
Units times days, ending on a measured reading. The most checkable line on a water estimate, and the alternative to cutting material out. Equipment is billed per unit per day. The unit count comes from how much wet material there is and the day count comes from readings taken at marked points, compared against unaffected material in the same building. Both are countable in advance and verifiable afterwards, so this is the line on an estimate most worth asking to see broken out.

Often needed alongside
- Emergency Water Extraction
The cheapest stage of a water loss, and the one that decides how expensive the rest of it gets. Standing water is removed before it moves into the structure.
- Ceiling Leak Damage Repair
The stain marks where water collected, not where it came in. The gap between the two is where a ceiling estimate's assumptions live.
Frequently asked questions
There is a leak under the slab. Why can it not just be dug out?
Because the slab is under tension. Steel cable runs through it carrying load, and cutting it is structural work requiring an engineer rather than a demolition saw. The usual answer is to abandon the buried line and reroute the supply overhead, which is a plumbing decision the restoration scope then follows.
Does the floor still have to come up?
Often some of it. Even where the line is rerouted, the slab and whatever covers it have been wet and have to be read and dried, and coverings over a wet slab frequently cannot be returned to service. Ask which flooring is coming up for access and which is coming up because it is ruined.
Is a slab leak covered?
Policies commonly treat the damage caused by the escaping water differently from the cost of getting at and fixing the pipe itself, and the two are often answered separately. Which parts apply to a particular property is for the carrier to establish. Ask the contractor to keep those costs on separate lines from the start.
