Water damage in El Paso County
In El Paso County, water damage often comes from the sky. Colorado Springs sees some of the heaviest hail in the state, and burn scars from the Waldo Canyon and Black Forest fires changed how fast runoff moves through neighborhoods below them. Older homes in the Old North End and near downtown bring their own plumbing and sewer line issues.
Every job starts with a look at what got wet and a written scope before work begins, and ends with dated photos and moisture readings you can give your insurer.

- 1
Tell us what's wet
Where the water is, how long it's been there, and whether it's still coming in. If it is, we'll help you find the shutoff while you're on the phone.
- 2
We look before we price
We map where the water actually went, usually further than it looks: under flooring, up the drywall, into the next room. You get a written scope and price before any work starts.

Extraction and drying
Standing water comes out first. Anything that can't be saved, like soaked carpet pad or swollen baseboard, gets removed. Then air movers and dehumidifiers go in, and we check readings every day.

Sign-off when it's actually dry
Equipment comes out when the readings hit dry, not on a set day. You get a report with photos, readings and what was removed. The invoice matches the scope line for line.
Why people call Bennett Water Damage
We show you the numbers
Moisture readings get taken and written down every day. You'll know the job is done because the numbers say so, not because we said so.
We'll tell you if you don't need us
Sometimes a small leak caught early just needs a fan and a day. If that's your situation, we'll say so, and you'll get it in writing like any other finding.
You know who's in your house
We tell you up front who'll be on site and who they work for. No surprise subcontractors.
Paperwork your adjuster can use
Dated photos, daily moisture logs, a list of what was removed and why. It makes the insurance side a lot less painful.
No pressure to sign
An assessment isn't a sales pitch. Want a second opinion or a day to talk to your insurance company? That's fine, and the price doesn't change.
We refer out what isn't ours
If the fix is really a plumber's or a roofer's job, we'll tell you that instead of stretching to cover it ourselves.

Common questions
What should I do before you get there?
Shut off the water if it's still coming in, turn off power to wet areas only if you can reach the breaker from a dry spot, take photos and video of everything, and move small valuables off the floor. Don't pull up carpet or throw anything away until it's photographed.
How long does drying usually take?
Most jobs take three to five days with equipment running. Colorado's dry air helps, but it also makes things feel dry before they are, so we go by daily moisture readings.
Will my homeowners insurance cover this?
Sudden and accidental water, like a burst pipe or a failed hose, is usually covered. Slow leaks, outside flooding and sewer backups often aren't unless you have the right coverage. We give you dated photos, daily readings and a written scope either way.
Are you available at night and on weekends?
Yes. We answer 24/7. Call and tell us what's happening, and we'll help you figure out what to do right now.
Not sure if it's bad enough to call?
Call anyway. Tell us what you're seeing and we'll tell you straight whether it needs a visit or whether it's something you can handle yourself tonight. We answer 24/7.
