Water damage restoration in the 77028 ZIP code (Settegast)
If your property in 77028 has water damage, we can help you get it under control. This ZIP code is in northeast Houston, inside Loop 610, and takes in Settegast along with parts of Pleasantville, East Little York, and the Trinity and Houston Gardens area. It is a mix of long-established residential streets and industrial corridors, and it sits in the Hunting Bayou watershed, where flooding is frequent. We handle water losses across all of it, from burst pipes and appliance leaks to storm and flood water, and take the job from extraction through drying and repairs.
Call and tell us your address and what happened. We will advise the immediate safety steps and get the recovery started.
Frequent flooding and drainage in 77028
Parts of 77028, including Settegast, can flood in storms as small as the two-year event, largely because of roadside ditches and storm sewers that do not have enough capacity for heavy rain. Sitting in the Hunting Bayou watershed adds to that risk. Because so much of the flooding here comes from drainage backing up rather than a river overflowing, water can reach homes quickly and from the street side, and once it does, it soaks into flooring, drywall, and framing within hours, with mold able to begin growing within a day or two. Flood water is also often contaminated.

Ranch homes and industrial edges in 77028
Most of the housing in 77028 is single-family, including many ranch-style and traditional homes built between the 1950s and 1970s on generous lots, with some newer infill construction and small wood-frame homes. The ZIP code is bordered by industrial corridors and rail facilities, so alongside homes there are commercial and industrial buildings. In a slab home, water spreads across the floor and into the walls, while in a commercial or industrial building it can hide above ceilings and behind walls. Either way, the goal is to find all the water and dry it fully before it causes lasting damage.
First steps if you have water damage in 77028
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.
