What Makes Hobbs, New Mexico Different
Hobbs sits on the flat, dry plains of southeast New Mexico, close to the Texas line. Rain is scarce, but when summer storms roll in, the ground is so flat that water pools in streets, yards and low spots with nowhere to drain. Water standing against a slab or a stucco wall can wick up into drywall and baseboards, so clear it away from the house fast.
Many homes here cool with evaporative coolers on the roof. A cracked pan, a stuck float or a split water line can send water through the ceiling below, and the damp pads can smell musty. Hail storms crack shingles and skylights, and strong winds carry dust into attics and ducts.
Oil field booms have brought waves of new homes and manufactured housing. Winter is mostly mild, but a hard freeze like the one in February 2021 burst pipes across the region. Insulate pipes in outside walls and under manufactured homes, and know where your main shutoff is before a cold snap.

Checking a License in Hobbs
New Mexico licenses contractors through the Construction Industries Division of the state Regulation and Licensing Department. Ask for the license number and classification and look it up with the state before you sign. New Mexico has no separate mold license, so ask whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage and mold remediation, and ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance.
