Water damage & mold help in Lubbock, TX

Lubbock sits on the flat South Plains of West Texas, where hail, high winds and dust storms are part of every spring. On May 11, 1970, a violent tornado struck downtown Lubbock. With almost no slope to the land, heavy rain collects in the city's many playa lakes and low streets, and hard freezes regularly burst pipes in winter.

Lubbock homes and water damage

Tech Terrace and Overton have 1930s–1950s brick homes near Texas Tech, many now student rentals. Southwest Lubbock has newer slab homes with attic HVAC equipment.

Hail damage

Large hail regularly damages roofs, gutters and windows across the South Plains, causing leaks after the next rain.

Playa lake flooding

Heavy rain fills playa lakes and floods low streets and homes, because the flat land drains slowly.

Hard freezes

Arctic cold fronts drop temperatures quickly, freezing pipes in exterior walls and attics.

Wind and dust storms

High winds tear off shingles and drive dust and rain into attics and walls.

Student rental leaks

Rentals near Texas Tech change tenants often, and slow leaks can go unreported.

Pier-and-beam crawlspaces

Older brick homes near Texas Tech often sit on pier-and-beam foundations. Leaks under the floor soak the crawlspace, and the joists and subfloor need drying before mold starts in the summer heat.
