At Turbo Dry Restoration, we specialize in mitigating the unique water intrusion challenges faced by Lakewood homeowners and businesses. From the expansive clay soils that stress foundations to the rapid snowmelt that floods window wells, we understand how Colorado’s environment affects your property.
We are fully licensed in Jefferson County and strictly adhere to the IICRC S500 Standard for professional water damage restoration. Our team utilizes advanced moisture mapping and thermal imaging to locate hidden water behind drywall and under flooring, ensuring we dry your property completely. With 24/7 emergency dispatch, direct insurance billing, and a commitment to rapid response, we help you navigate the recovery process with minimal stress and maximum efficiency.
Our technicians are not just equipment operators; they are certified specialists who understand the science of structural drying.

This scientific approach prevents secondary damage like mold growth and structural buckling, saving you time and money.
Water damage rarely limits itself to one area of a building. In Lakewood, our services are tailored to address the specific architectural and environmental realities of Jefferson County. From the expansive clay soils that put pressure on older basement foundations to the freezing winter temperatures that cause outdoor spigots to burst, we provide comprehensive mitigation for both residential and commercial properties.
Our licensed technicians handle everything from high-volume water extraction after a sump pump failure to meticulous crawl space drying and mold remediation. We understand that a commercial property along Union Boulevard has different operational needs than a mid-century ranch home in Applewood. That is why we customize our drying plans, utilizing high-velocity air movers and industrial-grade LGR dehumidifiers calibrated for Colorado’s high elevation and low relative humidity.
Our comprehensive approach ensures that we do not just dry the surface; we address the deep structural framing, subfloors, and drywall. This thoroughness prevents long-term structural rot and protects your indoor air quality. Whether you are a homeowner dealing with an appliance leak or a facility manager facing a major sewage backup, we provide the rapid, certified response necessary to restore safety and value to your property.

At Turbo Dry Restoration, we have built our reputation on fast, reliable, and scientifically backed restoration services. We understand that Lakewood’s high-altitude environment at 5,400 feet presents unique challenges for structural drying. While Colorado’s low relative humidity can accelerate surface drying, it can also mask deep-seated moisture readings if equipment is not properly calibrated. Our team uses advanced, altitude-adjusted moisture meters and thermal imaging to ensure your property is truly dry, not just dry on the surface.
We hold ourselves to the highest industry standards, including the IICRC S500 Standard for professional water damage restoration. Our technicians are fully licensed and insured, operating with deep knowledge of Jefferson County building permit requirements and local home-rule city regulations. We maintain a fleet of fully stocked response vehicles, allowing us to arrive quickly in neighborhoods from Belmar to Green Mountain, equipped to handle everything from minor appliance leaks to major groundwater intrusion.
Our commitment extends beyond just extracting water; we aim to guide you through the entire recovery process with clear communication and professional documentation. We coordinate directly with your insurance provider, providing the detailed moisture maps and drying logs required by the Colorado Division of Insurance.

Incorporated in 1969, Lakewood has grown from a collection of agricultural subdivisions and mid-century suburban developments into the largest city in Jefferson County. The city’s residential landscape reflects this history, featuring a diverse mix of housing stock. In older neighborhoods like Applewood and Eiber, ranch-style homes from the 1950s and 1960s are common, often featuring finished basements with older waterproofing systems. These older foundations, combined with Jefferson County’s expansive clay soils, are highly susceptible to groundwater seepage and foundation stress, particularly during heavy spring rains and rapid Front Range snowmelt.
During the late 1970s and 1980s, Lakewood experienced a major development boom, leading to the construction of split-level and two-story homes in areas like Green Mountain and Glennon Heights. Many of these homes were built with hardwood floors installed directly over concrete slabs, a design that requires immediate, professional water extraction if an appliance leak or plumbing failure occurs. Without rapid intervention, moisture trapped between the wood and concrete leads to severe cupping, buckling, and eventual mold growth in the dust-rich subfloor environment.
The local climate also plays a major role in property maintenance challenges. Lakewood experiences dramatic freeze-thaw cycles from November through March, which regularly stress outdoor spigots and main water lines, leading to sudden burst pipe events. In the summer, intense afternoon thunderstorms can dump inches of rain in a matter of minutes, overwhelming residential sump pumps and storm drains, particularly in low-lying areas near Bear Creek and Lakewood Gulch. Understanding these local geological and climatic factors allows us to provide highly targeted, effective restoration strategies for every property we serve.

Below are common questions:
At Turbo Dry Restoration, we provide 24/7 emergency dispatch throughout Lakewood, Colorado, with a typical on-site arrival window of under two hours. Rapid response is critical for water damage restoration because standing water can begin to damage drywall, warp hardwood floors, and trigger mold growth within 24 to 48 hours. Our fully equipped response vehicles are stationed locally to ensure we can begin water extraction and structural drying immediately, minimizing secondary damage and reducing overall restoration costs.
Most standard homeowners insurance policies in Colorado cover sudden and accidental water damage, such as a burst pipe or a sudden appliance leak. However, gradual damage caused by unresolved maintenance issues or long-term seepage is typically excluded. Additionally, standard policies do not cover rising groundwater or flood damage, which requires a separate policy through the FEMA National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). We recommend checking with the Colorado Division of Insurance for guidance on policy standards, and we can bill your insurance company directly to streamline the claims process.
Basement flooding in Lakewood is commonly caused by rapid Front Range snowmelt in the spring, intense summer afternoon thunderstorms, and sump pump failure. Jefferson County’s expansive clay soils retain significant moisture, putting hydrostatic pressure on older concrete foundations and forcing water through cracks or window wells. Additionally, the freeze-thaw cycles typical of Lakewood winters can stress water lines and outdoor spigots, leading to sudden indoor burst pipe water damage when the pipes thaw.
Yes, mold can begin to grow within 24 to 48 hours of water exposure, even in Colorado’s semi-arid climate. While our low relative humidity helps accelerate structural drying, the dust-rich environments behind drywall, under carpets, and inside crawl spaces provide the perfect breeding ground for mold spores if moisture is left unaddressed. Professional mold remediation and thorough water extraction are essential to ensure that all hidden moisture is completely eliminated from the building materials.
Drying a crawl space requires professional water extraction, specialized low-profile dehumidifiers, and high-velocity air movers to circulate air in confined spaces. Because many older ranch homes in Lakewood have crawl spaces with minimal vapor barriers, groundwater intrusion can easily lead to wood rot and mold. We follow the IICRC S500 Standard to safely extract standing water, dry the structural framing, and apply antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold growth, ensuring the space is completely stabilized.
I called the company, not knowing that they were located in Massachusetts. Mike and Oscar provided excellent service. Although we were reluctant to cut the walls, his knowledge revealed black mould. Excellent service.

When our sump pump broke and flooded part of the basement, Fargo's Choice Water Damage Restorations came straight away. Their workers showed up on time and immediately began removing shattered items and water. They used industrial air movers and dehumidifiers to dry the area completely and stop mold from growing. They were open and honest with us and worked directly with our insurance adjuster while the repairs were going on. This made things a lot easier for us. The guys did a great job, worked quickly, and wanted to bring our house back to normal as soon as possible.
