Seasonal & Emergency Work in Denver, CO

In order of likelihood: mineralized pads blocking airflow, a pump that seized over the winter, a stuck float valve so the pan isn't holding water, or a glazed belt slipping on the motor pulley. All four are common, all four are inexpensive parts, and most are a single-visit fix. If the motor itself has failed that's a bigger item and I'll tell you what it costs before ordering anything.

Before the first hard freeze, which in Denver can arrive in October and occasionally sooner. Don't wait for sustained cold — a single overnight dip below freezing with a hose still connected is enough to split a pipe. If you're on the fence about timing, earlier costs nothing and later can cost a wall.

During cooler season I prioritize them, because a broken cooler in August is a genuinely unpleasant house and the parts are usually on the truck. Same-day depends on where you are in the metro and what's already booked, so call early in the day for the best chance. I'll tell you honestly on the phone whether I can make it today rather than leaving you waiting.

Yes, and it's worth booking both at once — takedown in January is the part everyone regrets not arranging in November. I use clips rather than staples so nothing puts holes in your fascia, and I'll bundle and store them labeled so next year is faster.
