Fast Help for Burst and Frozen Pipes in Aspen
Aspen’s freezing temperatures can cause water inside plumbing lines to expand and rupture pipes behind walls, beneath floors, inside ceilings and in crawl spaces. Once the pipe breaks, water can spread into drywall, insulation, flooring, cabinets and structural materials.
Helpers Disaster Restoration provides complete water damage restoration in Aspen, including emergency extraction, moisture detection, structural drying, damaged-material removal and ongoing monitoring.

What to Do Immediately After a Pipe Bursts
- Shut off the main water supply if it is safe and accessible.
- Turn off electricity in affected areas if water is near outlets, wiring or electrical equipment.
- Call a licensed plumber to stop and repair the source of the leak.
- Contact Helpers Disaster Restoration for immediate water extraction and structural drying.
- Document the damage with photos and videos for your insurance company.
- Do not wait for surfaces to air-dry because moisture can remain trapped behind walls and beneath floors.
Even when standing water is removed, hidden moisture can remain inside building materials. Professional drying equipment and moisture testing are essential for confirming that the affected areas are completely dry.
Our Burst Pipe Water Damage Restoration Process
1. Emergency Inspection
We inspect the affected rooms, identify visible and hidden water damage, and determine the safest restoration plan.
2. Water Extraction
High-powered extraction equipment removes standing water from floors, carpets, basements, crawl spaces and other affected areas.
3. Moisture Detection
Moisture meters and detection equipment help locate water that may have traveled behind drywall, beneath flooring or into insulation.
4. Structural Drying
Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers are strategically placed to dry structural materials and control indoor humidity.
5. Damaged Material Removal
Wet drywall, insulation, flooring and other materials that cannot be safely restored may need to be removed.
6. Monitoring and Documentation
Drying progress is monitored and documented until affected materials reach appropriate moisture levels.
