We write for homeowners in a stressful situation, so our standard is simple: accurate, practical, and honest about what we don't know.
Sources
Safety, mold, and drying guidance is checked against public sources such as the EPA, CDC, and Ready.gov. Insurance explanations follow the Colorado Division of Insurance and FloodSmart (NFIP). Local flood history and hazards come from the National Weather Service, city and county governments, and well-documented historical events. Industry terms like water categories follow the ANSI/IICRC S500 standard.
Local information
City pages describe general, documented local conditions. They are not statements about any individual property's risk. We only list cities and ZIP codes in our approved service area.
What we avoid
We don't publish invented reviews, testimonials, credentials, response times, prices, or project stories.
Corrections
If you see something inaccurate, call (800) 231-6861 and we'll review it.
