Water damage & mold help in Texas

Texas faces almost every kind of water damage. The February 2021 winter storm burst pipes statewide in homes not built for extended freezes. Hurricane Harvey (2017) caused catastrophic flooding in Houston. North Texas sits in a major hail belt, and expansive clay soils across much of the state stress slab foundations and under-slab plumbing. Gulf Coast humidity turns small leaks into mold.

Main water, mold and storm risks in Texas

Freeze bursts

Water lines in attics and exterior walls burst during hard freezes, as in February 2021.

Flooding and hurricanes

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

Slab leaks and hail

Expansive clay soils crack under-slab pipes, and hail damages roofs across North and Central Texas.

Seasonal prevention checklist for Texas

  1. Before a freeze

    Insulate attic and exterior-wall pipes, drip faucets, and open sink cabinets.

  2. Before hurricane season

    Gulf Coast homeowners should confirm flood coverage and photograph their home.

  3. Year-round

    Watch for slab-leak signs and keep AC condensate lines clear.

Texas questions

Do I need a licensed mold company in Texas?

Yes, for jobs of 25 contiguous square feet or more. Texas requires a TDLR-licensed remediator, plus an independent licensed assessor to write the protocol.

Is a slab leak covered by insurance in Texas?

Many policies cover the water damage and the cost to access the pipe, but not the pipe repair itself. Your policy wording decides.
