Broomfield became its own city and county in 2001, and the east side of it, along Interstate 25 from 136th Avenue up to State Highway 7, is the part that borders Thornton. That side is almost entirely 2000s and 2010s: two-story houses on full basements in master-planned subdivisions, with a few slab-on-grade ranches in the patio-home sections. Big Dry Creek runs along the south edge of that area, and the detention ponds built into every subdivision are there because the clay under them drains slowly.
This site puts homeowners on Broomfield's east side through by phone to an independent local water damage provider.
A new-construction basement here hides water well. The walls are insulated and finished, the slab is covered, and the first sign is often a musty smell at the bottom of the stairs or a baseboard that has started to lift. If either has shown up since the last storm, the wall behind it has been wet for a while, and a meter reading tells you how long.
A basement that took water at the window well after a thunderstorm is a basement flooding cleanup. A PEX manifold fitting that failed in the basement ceiling is burst pipe water damage. A water heater in the utility room that rusted through is a water heater leak cleanup.
Because Broomfield is a consolidated city and county, every permit for a house on its side of the line goes through the City and County of Broomfield, and a rebuild contractor who works mostly in Thornton or Adams County has to file there instead.
Call (720) 735-3725 and tell us what the basement looks like. An independent local water damage provider serving Broomfield's east side picks it up from there.
Water pumped out of a finished or unfinished Thornton basement, then the bottom of every wall and the slab metered to see what stayed wet.
Standing water pulled off carpet, tile, wood, and concrete on any floor of the house, with the first moisture readings taken the same visit.
Air movers and dehumidifiers set from daily readings until subfloor, studs, and drywall reach their dry target in a dry-climate house.
Cleanup after a supply line froze in a garage wall, crawl space, or north-facing wall during an arctic night and split when it thawed.
A failed supply line, a cracked fitting, or an old galvanized run in a 1950s ranch let go, and the rooms it soaked get pumped out and dried.
The tank in the basement utility corner rusted through overnight, and the floor, framing, and stored boxes it soaked get dried out.
Wet attic insulation, ceilings, and walls dried after a hailstorm, a wind-torn shingle, or an ice dam let meltwater into the house.
A high Thornton Water bill, a warm patch on a slab floor, or a damp spot with no visible source tracked to the pipe behind it before walls open.
