Restoration Services for Telluride and Mountain Village
Telluride sits in a high mountain box canyon, with Mountain Village above it on the ski mountain. Long, cold winters, heavy snow and a large share of part-time homes and rentals make water damage one of the biggest risks owners face. Valley Restoration & Construction is a locally owned company based in Olathe, and we serve Telluride, Mountain Village and the surrounding communities. Call any time at (970) 964-4437.
When water, fire, smoke or mold damages your home, condo, rental or business, we stop the damage from spreading and handle the cleanup and the rebuild with one local team. Our technicians are trained to IICRC S500/S520/S700 standards for water damage, mold remediation and fire and smoke restoration.
What High-Mountain Winters Do to Homes
- Frozen pipes. Pipes in exterior walls, crawl spaces, garages and mechanical rooms can freeze quickly if the heat fails or is turned down too far while a home sits empty.
- Heavy snow loads and ice dams. Deep snow and freeze-thaw cycles build ice along the eaves, and meltwater backs up under roofing into ceilings and walls. Our guide on preventing frozen pipes and ice dams explains the warning signs.
- Spring melt. As the snowpack melts, water can pool against foundations and find its way into lower levels and crawl spaces. See spring snowmelt and roof-melt water damage.
- Wildfire smoke. Smoke and soot can travel a long way and settle into homes, HVAC systems and furnishings.
Telluride Homes: Historic Houses, Condos and Second Homes
Telluride has Victorian-era homes in its historic district, newer mountain homes, and condos and townhomes in town and in Mountain Village. Many are second homes or short-term rentals that sit empty for weeks, so a burst pipe or failed water heater can run for days before anyone notices. In condos and multi-unit buildings, water can travel from one unit into the units below. If you're leaving for the season, our checklist for closing up a cabin or second home for winter covers the basics.

Working With Your Insurance and HOA
Most water and fire losses involve an insurance claim. We document the damage with photos, moisture readings and notes on what was removed and why, and we work with your adjuster and, for condos, the HOA's adjuster and property manager to keep the claim moving. Our guide on working with your insurance company when disaster strikes explains what to expect.
