Navigating Your Insurance Claim After Water Damage

Filing a water damage claim for the first time is confusing. Most homeowners have no idea what to document, what language to use, or what their adjuster will ask for.

We’ve been through this process hundreds of times. We guide you through it:

We document the damage with photos, moisture readings, and written reports from day one
We prepare the scope of work in the format adjusters recognize and accept
We answer questions about what happened and how the damage progressed
We give you a complete file at the end of the project — work completed, moisture logs, materials used — which you may need for future claims or property sales.

We don’t negotiate your claim or act as your public adjuster. We give you the documentation and support to navigate the process yourself with confidence.

What Lakewood Residents Say About Our Service

Lakewood Water Damage FAQs

What's the difference between water damage restoration and water damage repair?

Restoration covers everything from the emergency call to the moment your structure is dry and safe — water extraction, drying, antimicrobial treatment. Repair is what happens next: replacing the drywall, flooring, subfloor, and baseboards that the water destroyed. Most companies do one or the other. Elyon does both under the same project, which means you deal with one crew, one estimate, and one timeline instead of coordinating between two separate contractors while your home sits open.

My Lakewood home was built in the 1960s. Should I be worried about asbestos during water damage repair?

Yes, and most restoration companies won't tell you this upfront. Homes built before 1980 in Lakewood commonly contain asbestos in floor tile adhesive, pipe insulation, and some drywall compounds. When water damage requires opening walls or removing flooring, those materials get disturbed. An unlicensed company either ignores it — which is illegal — or has to stop the job and wait for a separate abatement contractor. Elyon holds Colorado GAC License #30367, so we test and handle any hazardous materials in-house, same project, no delays.

My floors look dry. Do I actually need professional water damage repair?

Floors that look dry after a water event are often still wet inside. Drywall and wood subfloor absorb moisture faster than they release it, and surface drying with fans or air movement does nothing for the material cavity behind the wall or under the flooring. We use calibrated moisture meters to read what's actually happening inside. If those readings are elevated, the structure is still wet regardless of how it looks or feels. Skipping professional drying and jumping straight to cosmetic repair is the most common reason water damage jobs come back as mold problems six months later.

Can my hardwood floors be saved, or do they need to be replaced?

Hardwood floors have about a 24 to 48 hour window before cupping and warping become permanent. If we get there within that window and moisture readings are still within a recoverable range, drying and refinishing is possible. After that, replacement is the more honest recommendation. The specific answer depends on how long the floor was wet, how much water it absorbed, and the wood species — solid oak behaves differently from engineered hardwood. Rodolfo assesses this on the first visit and tells you straight what the realistic options are.

Mold is already growing. Does that change the repair process?

Mold changes the scope but not the ability to fix it. Active mold growth means we add remediation before structural drying and repair can begin — containment, HEPA air scrubbing, removal of colonized materials, and antimicrobial treatment of affected surfaces. Elyon is certified in both water damage restoration and mold remediation, so the same team handles both phases. You won't need to coordinate a separate mold company before the repair work can start. The presence of mold does affect cost and timeline, which we document clearly in the written estimate.

Do I need to move out during water damage repair?

For most residential jobs in Lakewood, no. If the damage is confined to one area — a bathroom, a bedroom, part of a basement — you can stay in the unaffected parts of the house while work happens. The situation changes if the damage involves sewage (Category 3 water), active mold requiring containment, or if the affected area includes your primary living space and the drying equipment makes the environment genuinely uncomfortable. Rodolfo makes that call honestly on the first assessment. If temporary relocation is genuinely necessary, we tell you. If it isn't, we don't suggest it.

The water damage is in my finished basement. Is that more complicated to repair?

Finished basements cost more and take longer to restore than unfinished ones because there are more materials involved — insulation, drywall, flooring, ceiling, cabinetry — and moisture hides in more places. The drying phase is the same IICRC process regardless, but reconstruction scope expands significantly. For older Lakewood properties with finished basements, we also check for asbestos in floor tile before removal. One thing that simplifies the process: we handle the full scope from extraction through reconstruction, so the project doesn't stall between the mitigation crew and a separate remodeling contractor.

Will water damage in my home affect its resale value if I repair it professionally?

A professionally restored property with proper documentation — moisture logs, work scope, materials used, before-and-after photos — does not carry a stigma in a real estate transaction the way undisclosed or poorly repaired water damage does. Buyers and their inspectors look for signs of improper repair: fresh paint over stained drywall, mismatched flooring, elevated moisture readings in walls. Professional restoration that's properly documented is a clean disclosure. We give you a complete project file at the end of every job for exactly this reason.

How do I know when my home is actually safe and dry after water damage repair?

The answer comes from the moisture meter, not from how the house looks or smells. Throughout the drying phase, we take daily readings inside walls, subfloor, and framing and log them. The IICRC sets reference values for each material type — concrete, wood, drywall — and equipment stays until readings reach those standards for each material in the affected area. When reconstruction is complete, Rodolfo does a personal walkthrough with you. You receive the full moisture log as part of your project documentation. If the numbers aren't there, the job isn't done. Call us at (720) 602-6746 to schedule a free assessment.
