What Makes Tyler Different
Tyler sits in the rolling pine woods of East Texas. Spring storms bring tornado warnings, hail and straight line winds, and falling pine trees are a common cause of roof damage and leaks. Once the roof is open, rain gets into the attic, ceilings and walls fast, so cover it the same day if it is safe to do so.
Summers are long, hot and humid. Wet drywall and carpet pad can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours, so drying has to start the same day. Air conditioners run most of the year, and a clogged condensate line or a rusted drain pan under an attic unit can soak a ceiling quietly. The red clay soil swells when wet and shrinks in drought, which moves slabs and can crack pipes.
Ice storms and hard freezes are not common but do happen. The February 2021 freeze burst pipes across East Texas in homes built for heat, not cold. Know where your main water shutoff is before the next hard freeze, and keep heat on in any space with water lines.

Checking a License in Tyler
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.
