Catastrophic Flooding in Boulder, Colorado

9/25/2013 (Permalink)

This homeowner's basement was engulfed in 11 feet of flood water. This is the muddy remains after SERVPRO pumped out the water.

We saw the rains coming down and were disappointed our normally sunny state was covered with clouds. Little did we know what the rains would bring to Colorado. Streets began to flood and creeks and rivers overflowed their banks. Suddenly our state was forefront in the news and epic floods were wreaking havoc on people’s lives and property. Our SERVPRO phones began to ring with frantic homeowners needing our help. We dispatched all our crews and brought in many workers, but we still needed help. Our Local Franchises were overwhelmed. Then the SERVPRO storm team mobilized and help arrived. SERVPRO teams from all over the country came to our state to work side-by-side with local crews. Our SERVPRO crews continue to work tirelessly, morning to night, to help those affected by the floods. Though these catastrophic floods have caused immeasurable damage, we have seen the strength of the human spirit as homeowners display gratitude, generosity and patience with each other and us.
