Hunting Bayou and flood risk in 77026
Kashmere Gardens sits in the Hunting Bayou watershed, and the bayou has needed to be deepened and widened to move water better during heavy rain. Homes here took on water during Hurricane Harvey, and recovery in this neighborhood was slow. Harris County has since moved forward with flood-control work, including a new stormwater detention basin, meant to take thousands of area homes out of the flood plain. Until that work is finished, low-lying property here stays exposed, and when flood water enters a home it comes in low and is often contaminated, soaking into flooring, drywall, and framing within hours, with mold able to begin growing within a day or two.

Older homes in Kashmere Gardens
Most of 77026 is modest single-family homes, many of them older, with aging plumbing and original materials. In a home like this, water spreads across the floor and into the base of the walls, and older construction hides moisture well, so drying it fully means finding what has soaked under flooring and into wall cavities, not just what is visible. Homes that have flooded before need especially careful drying and checking for lingering damp and mold.
First steps if you have water damage in 77026
While you wait for help:
- Stop the water at its source if you safely can, such as shutting the main valve for a burst pipe.
- Turn off power to the affected area, and never step into standing water where electricity is live.
- Stay clear of flood and contaminated water, since it can carry bacteria and other hazards.
- Move valuables up and clear of the water.
- Do not use a household vacuum on standing water, since it is not built for it and can be dangerous.
Anything larger than a small, clean spill, or any water that may be contaminated, is safer handled by a professional.
