What Makes Wichita Falls Different
Wichita Falls sits on the plains near the Red River, in the heart of tornado country. In 1979 a violent tornado tore across the city and destroyed many homes. Spring storms still bring tornadoes, large hail and strong wind, so know where you will shelter and have the roof checked after a big hailstorm.
The Wichita River and Holliday Creek run through the city, and heavy rain can raise them fast. Homes on low ground near the water should check their flood risk, because a standard homeowners policy does not cover flooding. The clay soil swells when wet and shrinks in drought, which moves slabs and can crack the pipes under them.
Summers are hot, and winters bring the occasional hard freeze and ice storm, which can split pipes in exterior walls. Wet drywall and carpet pad can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours. Many older homes near downtown were built before 1978, so test for lead paint and asbestos before any demolition.

Checking a License in Wichita Falls
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.
