Do you take water damage calls in Richardson?

Yes. Richardson is part of the Lewisville area that 911 Water Damage Fix covers, 18 miles from Lewisville. Call (833) 728-2327 day or night for extraction, drying or a sewage backup; the crew inspects and writes the estimate first.

How soon can a crew get to Richardson?

Arrival times depend on the hour and the distance across the Lewisville area. The person on the call tells you when the crew can be in Richardson. Use the wait to close the main valve and photograph every wet room.

Will my insurance pay for water damage in Texas?

Often, when the damage is sudden. Standard homeowners policies list accidental discharge from plumbing and appliances as covered, according to the Insurance Information Institute, while flooding from outside and sewer backup need separate coverage. Check your policy, call your insurer early and keep the crew's photos and moisture readings.

Are older homes in Richardson more likely to have water damage?

Plumbing age is one of the main causes of household leaks: worn supply lines, corroded fittings and aging water heaters. In an older Richardson home, ask for moisture mapping around every fixture on the same line as the leak.
