Houston's bayous, Hill Country rivers and the Gulf Coast flood during heavy rain and tropical storms.

In Fort Worth: Low areas near the Trinity River's forks and creeks such as Sycamore and Marine Creek see flash flooding during heavy spring storms. In Irving: Parts of Irving near the Elm Fork of the Trinity River are low-lying, and heavy rain can overwhelm local drainage. In Garland: Neighborhoods sloping toward Lake Ray Hubbard and Duck Creek collect stormwater runoff in heavy rain. Poorly graded yards and clogged gutters can push water against slab edges and under exterior doors. That water counts as outside water, which affects how it's cleaned and how insurance treats it. In Denton: Denton sits between Lake Lewisville and Ray Roberts Lake, and spring storms tracking across North Texas bring heavy rain and hail. Pecan Creek and Cooper Creek can rise quickly, flooding low streets and backing up storm drains in older neighborhoods near downtown.

Most homes are slab-on-grade with water lines and HVAC equipment in the attic, from post-war ranches to large master-planned communities.

Texas doesn't license general contractors statewide, but it licenses mold assessors and mold remediation contractors through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) for projects of 25 contiguous square feet or more.
