Water Damage Restoration in Hampden South, CO

Hampden South is the southeast corner of Denver, east of Interstate 25 along Hampden Avenue, on land a homesteader named Rufus Clark farmed for potatoes in the 1860s. Denver annexed it in the 1960s, and the houses went up through the 1960s and 1970s on lots that are among the larger ones inside the city: brick ranches and two-stories with full basements around Southmoor, Rosamond, and Eastmoor parks, with condo and apartment buildings along Hampden and around the Tech Center office towers at the east end. About 15,600 people live there.

Cherry Creek Reservoir sits just east of the neighborhood, and the ground on that side drains toward it. The houses are fifty and sixty years old, which means original copper, original boilers in some, and sewer laterals of clay. A finished basement from 1975 with paneling over the studs hides a wet wall well.

This site puts Hampden South homeowners through by phone to an independent local water damage provider. A moisture meter goes around the basement before any decision is made.

Hampden South water damage in a 1970s two-story

A basement wall behind 1970s paneling that reads wet on the meter after a wet spring is a basement flooding cleanup, and the paneling comes off to reach it. A copper line in a second-floor bathroom that let go over the living room is burst pipe water damage. A hose bib line that froze in a garage wall over a cold weekend is frozen pipe cleanup.

The reservoir and the state park east of the neighborhood

Cherry Creek State Park surrounds the reservoir behind the 1950 flood-control dam that the Army Corps built after Cherry Creek flooded Denver repeatedly, and its 4,000 acres of open ground are the neighborhood's back yard. Rebuild permits for a Denver house go through the city's Community Planning and Development desk, and Denver Water sends the bill.
