What Makes Midland and Odessa Different
Midland and Odessa are dry most of the year, but when rain comes it can come hard. The ground is flat, and caliche under the soil keeps water from soaking in, so a strong storm can flood streets and low yards fast. Never drive into water over a road, even in the desert. Summer storms can also bring hail and high winds that damage roofs.
Most homes sit on concrete slabs with pipes running under the floor. Soil that shifts with wet and dry spells can crack those pipes, and a slab leak can run for weeks before anyone notices. Watch for a warm spot on the floor, a jump in the water bill or the sound of running water when everything is off. The freeze of February 2021 also burst pipes in homes across the region.
Water heaters, washing machines and evaporative coolers are common sources of leaks here. A small drip in a dry climate may dry out on the surface while the wood and drywall behind it stay wet. Check hidden spots after any leak with a moisture meter, because mold can grow inside a wall even in the desert.

Checking a License in Midland and Odessa
Texas licenses mold work through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. For mold jobs of 25 contiguous square feet or more, ask for a state licensed mold assessor to write the plan and a separate state licensed mold remediation contractor to do the cleanup, because Texas does not let the same company do both on one project. Look up both license numbers on the department’s website before you sign.
Texas has no statewide license for general contractors, so for rebuild work ask for proof of liability insurance and check with your city about permits. Plumbers are licensed by the state, so a slab leak or burst pipe repair should be done by a licensed plumber. For the drying and cleanup itself, ask whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage or mold remediation.
