How Water Damage Shows Up in Boerne
Burst pipes after a freeze
During Winter Storm Uri in February 2021, New Braunfels Utilities said residential leaks and burst pipes, not main breaks, caused its water outages, and asked customers to close their customer shut-off valve. Many Texas homes run water lines through uninsulated attics, so a split line can soak insulation and ceilings before anyone sees it.
Creek and river flooding
In July 2026, Cibolo Creek reached a record height at the gauge at the Cibolo Nature Center in Boerne after heavy rain. Floodwater from a creek or the Guadalupe River carries silt, bacteria and debris into every material it touches, so we remove affected materials, clean and disinfect as well as dry.
Flash floods and wet slabs
The Texas Water Development Board points to steep terrain, shallow soil and intense rainfall rates along the Balcones Escarpment. Water that gets into a slab home wicks into baseboards, drywall and flooring from the floor up, and trapped moisture under flooring keeps wicking after the surface looks dry.

Signs You Need Water Damage Restoration, and What To Do First
- Standing water or wet carpet after a storm or a plumbing failure
- Warm spots in the floor, or a water bill that jumps with no change in use
- Ceiling stains, sagging drywall, or bubbling paint
- A musty odor in a closet, cabinet, or crawl space
- Warped floors, swollen baseboards, or buckled trim
- A water meter that moves when every fixture is off
If water is entering the building, stop the source if you can reach the shutoff safely, and turn off power to wet areas if it is safe to do so. Move valuables, rugs, and electronics to a dry spot, take photos for your claim, and call (830) 644-6886. Do not walk through standing water near outlets or appliances, and do not use a household vacuum on water.
What Affects the Scope and Timeline
The scope depends on where the water came from and how long it sat. Clean water from a supply line affects different materials than storm runoff or a sewer backup, and a loss caught in the first hours often saves drywall and flooring that a loss caught the next day cannot. We list each room, the moisture readings, and the materials we will dry, clean, or remove, and we update the list as the readings change.
Most residential losses take 3 to 5 days to dry, followed by repairs. Slab leaks, hidden leaks inside walls, and losses involving contaminated water take longer. Daily readings tell us when the structure is dry, and we share them with you.
What We Restore After Water Damage
- Drywall, insulation, and ceilings
- Hardwood, laminate, tile, and subfloors
- Carpet and pad
- Cabinets, trim, and baseboards
- Ceilings below upstairs bathrooms
- Rooms affected by slab leaks
- Contents and electronics
- Crawl spaces, attics, and utility rooms
Insurance and Documentation for Water Damage Restoration
We provide Direct Insurance Coordination on water losses. That means photos, readings, and a written scope of work that your adjuster can review, communication with the adjuster on your behalf, and billing handled for you. Coverage depends on your policy, so confirm with your carrier what applies to each source of water, since a burst pipe, a slab leak, a sewer backup, and surface flooding are often treated differently.
