Water Damage Risks in Texas

Texas leads the nation in nearly every water damage category: Gulf hurricanes and extreme rainfall (Harvey set the U.S. record), flash floods in the Hill Country and cities alike, hail that tops national claims charts, freeze catastrophes like 2021's Uri, and expansive clay soil that cracks slabs and the plumbing inside them. Note: Texas requires state licensing for mold remediation work.

Whatever the source — storm, flood, burst pipe, sewage backup, or the mold that follows — the clock is the same everywhere: water spreads through drywall, framing, and flooring within hours, and mold can begin growing in 24–48. Fast, professional drying is the difference between a repair and a renovation.

(As noted above, Texas requires state licensing for mold remediation — ask for license numbers on any mold job.)
