Flood Damage Restoration in Aspen
Local Flood Cleanup & Full Reconstruction for Pitkin County Properties
When floodwater enters your property, the damage compounds fast. Within hours, water penetrates subflooring, wall cavities, and insulation. Within 24 to 48 hours, mold can begin to develop. ECOS operates a location less than 10 minutes from downtown Aspen, and our live operators are available around the clock to get a certified technician to your door quickly.
We’ve been helping Colorado property owners recover from flood and water damage since 2004. Our A+ rating from the BBB and our standing as a licensed general contractor set us apart from mitigation-only restoration companies in the Roaring Fork Valley.

From Emergency Extraction to Complete Reconstruction
Most restoration companies stop at drying and hand you off to a contractor for repairs. Because ECOS is a licensed general contractor, we carry your project through every phase under one point of accountability. We call it Restore, Replace, Renew.
What that process looks like:
- Assessment and containment: We identify the source, scope, and category of the flood event before any work begins.
- Water extraction: Powerful pumps and vacuum systems remove standing water efficiently.
- Structural drying: High-capacity dehumidifiers and air movers dry the structure, including hidden spaces behind walls, under flooring, and in crawl spaces.
- Sanitization and mold prevention: We treat affected areas with green-certified products rated safe for people, pets, and sensitive materials.
- Repair and reconstruction: Damaged materials are repaired or fully rebuilt, with no contractor handoff required.
Category 3 flood events involving sewage backup or heavily contaminated outdoor floodwater require containment and disposal protocols beyond standard extraction. Our 40-hour HAZWOPER-certified technicians are trained and equipped for those conditions. All water damage repair services are backed by a one-year guarantee.
Why Flood Damage Is a Real & Recurring Risk in Aspen
The Roaring Fork River near Aspen carries a documented flood stage of 5.0 feet and has reached or exceeded that level in multiple years. When it does, Pitkin County activates incident management teams, and the National Weather Service has documented water impacting homes and condominiums in Aspen neighborhoods near the river. Spring snowmelt drives the most significant annual flood risk, but the North American monsoon season brings scattered thunderstorms and flash flooding to Pitkin County from July through September.
What many property owners don’t realize is that roughly one-third of flood insurance claims come from properties outside the mapped regulatory floodplain. Being outside a designated flood zone doesn’t mean your property is safe from flood intrusion.
Aspen also has a high concentration of second homes and vacation rentals. A flood that goes undetected for days or weeks before an owner arrives on-site accelerates structural damage and dramatically increases mold risk. Early response is everything.

Our flood damage restoration service in Aspen covers the full range of flood events and property types. Whether you’re dealing with outdoor river intrusion, storm-driven flooding, sewage backup, or water damage from firefighting efforts, our team responds with the right equipment and the right credentials.
Services we provide for Aspen and Pitkin County properties:
- Standing water extraction and emergency drying

- Mold prevention and remediation
- Sanitization, deodorization, and content handling
- Asbestos assessment and abatement for older building stock where floodwater may disturb hazardous materials
