Cherryridge sits across University Boulevard from St. Mary's Academy on the west side of Cherry Hills Village, one of the older sections of the city, with houses originally built in the late 1950s and 1960s on one-acre lots. Many have been gutted and rebuilt since, and the rebuilt ones run 3,000 to 8,500 finished square feet with finished basements and garages that hold four to ten cars. The originals that remain are brick ranches with plaster walls, hot-water heat, and copper that is past sixty years old.
The water pattern is the west-side pattern: the High Line Canal trail and the country club's fairways are close, the ground is watered all summer, and the basements under the old ranches were dug before anyone imagined a theater down there.
This site puts Cherryridge homeowners through by phone to an independent local water damage provider. The provider meters the basement and the walls before setting a scope.
An original 1961 ranch with a boiler fitting that let go behind plaster is burst pipe water damage, and plaster is metered differently from drywall. A new build whose basement took water along the slab edge in a wet May is a basement flooding cleanup. A ten-car garage with a hose bib line that froze in December is frozen pipe cleanup, and the slab dries on its own once the water is off it.
A house in Cherryridge that is being put back together after a water loss is often the same house that was gutted five years ago, and the permit history at the Cherry Hills Village building department shows what was replaced then and what was not. Original copper that survived the renovation is the first suspect in a leak. Plumbers in Colorado are licensed by the state, not the city, so ask the repair plumber for the state license number and check it before the wall closes.

Groundwater, a failed pit pump, or a broken line in a finished Cherry Hills basement pumped out, then carpet pad, drywall, and framing metered.
Standing water pulled off hardwood, tile, and basement concrete on any level of the house, with the first moisture readings taken the same visit.
Air movers and dehumidifiers run against daily readings until plaster, studs, subfloor, and slab reach their dry target in a mile-high house.
Cleanup after a supply line, hose bib, or sprinkler backflow froze in a January cold snap and split, then drying of everything the thaw soaked.
A failed supply line, boiler fitting, or radiant loop on an upper floor, and the ceilings, walls, and floors below it, dried from the top down.
A high Denver Water bill, a warm patch on a slab, or a musty wall traced to its source before anyone opens plaster or cuts tile.
A tank that let go in a basement mechanical room or a garage closet, and the flooring, drywall, and storage around it dried out.
Wet attic insulation, ceilings, and walls dried after a summer hailstorm or a wind-lifted shingle let water into the house.
