🌧️ Spring Storms in Texas: How to Protect Your Home from Water and Mold Damage

Spring in Texas is no joke. Sudden downpours, flash floods, and severe thunderstorms are common — and they can do serious damage to your home or business. What many people don’t realize is that even minor water intrusion can lead to major issues like mold growth, structural deterioration, and poor indoor air quality if left unchecked.

In this post, we’ll walk you through the top spring storm threats in our region, what to look out for after heavy weather, and how Boone’s Restoration Technologies can help protect your property from water and mold damage.

⚠️ Why Spring Storms Are Especially Risky in Texas

Texas weather is unpredictable — and spring brings some of the worst. Here’s why:

• Heavy rainfall can lead to roof leaks, clogged gutters, and foundation seepage.

• Flash flooding can overwhelm drainage systems and allow water to enter through doors and windows.

• Strong winds can damage siding, windows, and roofing, exposing your home to the elements.

• Humidity creates the perfect environment for mold spores to thrive once water enters your home.

Even if you don’t see immediate damage, moisture can hide behind walls, under flooring, or inside HVAC systems — setting the stage for mold growth in just 24–48 hours.

🏚️ Warning Signs to Watch For After a Storm

After a spring storm hits, check your property for these common signs of water intrusion or mold development:

• Damp or musty smells

• Stains on ceilings or walls

• Warped or buckling floors

• Peeling paint or wallpaper

• Visible mold in corners or HVAC vents

If you notice any of these, it’s time to take action.

🧰 What to Do If Your Property Takes on Water

If your home or building gets wet during or after a storm, here’s what you should do:

1. Act fast. Time is critical — the longer water sits, the more damage it causes.

2. Document the damage. Take photos and contact your insurance provider.

3. Call in professionals. DIY drying often misses hidden moisture. You need certified tools and expertise.

4. Schedule mold testing. If conditions are right, mold can begin forming in as little as 24 hours.
