Why Denver homes are different

Denver's low year-round humidity masks how concentrated its moisture risk is: spring snowmelt along the South Platte and its tributaries can push basements and foundations from bone-dry to saturated in a matter of days.

Denver's dry climate means many older homes were built without the vapor barriers or basement waterproofing standard in wetter regions, so a single spring snowmelt event can catch an unprepared foundation off guard.
