About this company
Rytech Restoration of Greater Denver is a franchise location of the national Rytech brand, based in Lakewood, Colorado. Owner Dan Powell runs the operation and shows up on jobs personally. The company handles both water damage restoration and mold remediation for residential and commercial properties across six Front Range counties.
The website describes a detailed process for both water and mold work: moisture meters, infrared cameras, HEPA air scrubbers, containment barriers with negative air pressure, LGR dehumidifiers, and antimicrobial treatments. They also offer decontamination services and mold inspection. Nothing in the equipment list is unusual for a restoration franchise, but the owner's direct involvement on jobs is — multiple reviewers describe Dan arriving the same day, often within hours, and staying involved through the full drying and remediation process.
Dan Powell is listed as the owner on the website. The Rytech corporate brand claims 30 years in the restoration industry. The Greater Denver location works directly with insurance carriers and handles claims coordination, which several reviewers specifically mention as a stress reducer.
A 4.9-star rating across 67 Google reviews with zero negatives in the past 18 months is strong. The review base includes multiple Local Guides and reviewers with substantial review histories, which adds weight to the score.

The website claims coverage across Jefferson, Broomfield, Adams, Arapahoe, Douglas, and Denver counties.

Review consensus
Dan Powell (owner) is the most frequently named person across the full review history. Reviewers describe him arriving the same evening or same day, explaining the process clearly, and staying involved through completion. Leo and Dominique (also referred to as Dominic and Dom) are the primary field technicians and appear together in many recent reviews. Rose D., a Local Guide, praised Leo and Dominique for making a stressful situation bearable with clear timelines. Sara Elletson (Local Guide) singled out Dan and Leo as knowledgeable and caring. Joseph Kiley specifically noted that Dan advised against unnecessary services rather than upselling. Multiple reviewers mention Rytech coordinating directly with their insurance company, and several (Lauren Lombardi, Katie Rubeck, Pamela Swanson) call out the insurance navigation as a major benefit. Communication and responsiveness are the two most common praise themes.

The review pattern reflects a small, owner-operated team where Dan, Leo, and Dominique handle most jobs directly. This creates consistency — reviewers almost always name the same three people — but also means capacity is limited. Several reviewers mention being referred by neighbors or insurance companies, suggesting a referral-driven business model rather than heavy marketing.
Dan Powell (owner — universally positive, named in majority of reviews across full history). Leo (technician — consistently positive, frequently paired with Dominique in recent reviews). Dominique/Dominic/Dom (technician — consistently positive, praised for knowledge and communication).
Ask for Dan directly — he owns the operation and reviewers consistently describe him as hands-on and straightforward. If your job involves both water damage and mold, get a separate mold assessment before agreeing to their remediation scope. Confirm response time for your specific location if you are outside Jefferson County.
Keep in mind
- Rytech Greater Denver does both mold inspection and mold remediation. This is a conflict of interest — the same company that finds the mold profits from removing it. Consider getting an independent mold assessment before committing to their remediation work.
- This is a franchise location of a national brand. Franchise quality depends on the local owner-operator, not the corporate name. Dan Powell runs this location, but staffing or ownership could change.
- The website claims service across six counties (Jefferson, Broomfield, Adams, Arapahoe, Douglas, Denver). Response times likely vary by distance from their Lakewood base.
- With zero negative reviews in the last 18 months and a 4.9 rating, there is no complaint data to evaluate. You are relying entirely on positive signals.
