Affordable Water Damage Cleanup
Provider snapshot
What this listing says
Centennial and south Denver homeowners dealing with basement flooding who want a water-damage-first company that also handles the mold left behind, run by owner Gregg Sargent for over 20 years.
Best for
- Centennial, Highlands Ranch, or south Denver homeowners with a flooded basement who need same-day water extraction and drying.
- Homeowners who discovered mold after a water event and want one company to handle both the water damage and the mold cleanup.
- Property owners who want the company to bill their insurance directly rather than dealing with the claims process themselves.
- Buyers who value working directly with the owner on smaller residential jobs.
About this company
Affordable Water Damage Cleanup is a Centennial-based restoration company that treats mold as the downstream problem it usually is: water damage comes first, mold follows. Owner Gregg Sargent has run the operation for over 20 years from 14152 E. Easter Ave in Centennial, serving residential and commercial properties across the Denver metro.
Their equipment page highlights infrared cameras for finding moisture behind walls, floors, and ceilings. They use these to document hidden damage for insurance claims. The company handles the full water-to-mold sequence: emergency water extraction, structural drying, and then mold remediation if growth has started. They also do mold testing in-house, which creates a conflict of interest worth understanding before you hire them for both.
Gregg Sargent is quoted on the website as president. Multiple reviewers mention him by name, and a local plumbing company says they routinely refer customers to him. The company has been in business since at least 2009 based on the website copyright, though they claim over 20 years of experience. They hold IICRC certification and a BBB listing.
A perfect 5.0 stars across 37 Google reviews is unusual for any restoration company. The review volume is modest, but the consistency is striking. No reviewer has left fewer than 4 stars, and several are Local Guides with substantial review histories.
Services
Service area
Headquartered at 14152 E. Easter Ave in Centennial, CO. They claim to serve from Fort Collins to Colorado Springs, including the entire Denver metro area. Specific cities mentioned on the website include Denver, Boulder, Lakewood, Arvada, Aurora, Englewood, Parker, Highlands Ranch, and Castle Rock. The Fort Collins-to-Colorado Springs range covers roughly 170 miles, so expect faster response near Centennial.
Review consensus
Fast response time is the most consistent theme. Multiple reviewers say the company arrived within an hour, including late-night and weekend calls. Steve is named most often for on-site work, described as knowledgeable, patient, and good at follow-through. Gregg (the owner) is praised for being fair and easy to work with. Insurance coordination comes up repeatedly: reviewers say the company handled the claims process and billed insurance directly, reducing their stress. A plumbing company (Karamie Canty) says they routinely refer customers to Disaster Cleanup Services for water remediation.
0 found across 37 total reviews at 5.0★. No 1-star or negative reviews found in the last 18 months. Across all 37 reviews, every single one is 5 stars.
The review timeline shows clusters: a batch of reviews in early 2016, then another in late 2021, then a group in May 2024. These clusters often coincide with seasonal flooding events (spring snowmelt, fall storms). Several May 2024 reviews come from accounts with very few reviews, which is common for first-time-reviewer homeowners dealing with an unfamiliar emergency but worth noting as a pattern.
Steve/Stephen (field technician — praised by multiple reviewers for responsiveness, knowledge, and follow-through). Gregg/Greg Sargent (owner/president — praised for being knowledgeable, fair, and easy to work with). Chris (field technician — praised for late-night emergency response and clear explanations). Toby (role unclear — mentioned alongside Greg and Steve in one review).
With 37 reviews and zero negatives, the track record is clean but the volume is modest for a company operating 20+ years. Ask for Steve by name if your job involves water damage or basement flooding. For mold-specific work, get an independent test first so you have a baseline that does not come from the company doing the remediation.
Keep in mind
- They do both mold testing and mold remediation. The company that finds the mold also gets paid to remove it. Ask whether they'll accept a third-party test or if you can bring in an independent inspector.
- Mold estimates carry a fee, while water and fire damage estimates are free. Call ahead to understand the cost before scheduling a mold-specific visit.
- Their service area claim stretches from Fort Collins to Colorado Springs, roughly 170 miles. Response times will vary significantly outside the Centennial and Denver metro core.
- The website is heavily focused on water damage. Mold remediation gets a single page with limited detail on methods, containment procedures, or post-remediation verification.
