Buffalo Bayou, the Addicks Reservoir, and flood risk in 77079
77079 is shaped by water on two sides: Buffalo Bayou along the south and the Addicks Reservoir along the west. During Hurricane Harvey, neighborhoods here saw major flooding, including from releases out of the Addicks Reservoir into Buffalo Bayou, and homes from Dairy Ashford toward Piney Point are the ones to watch when the bayou rises. Reservoir and bayou flooding is different from a quick street flood: water can rise and stay for a while and is often contaminated, and once it enters a home, it soaks into flooring, drywall, and framing within hours, with mold able to begin growing within a day or two.

Homes and townhomes in 77079
Most of 77079 is established single-family homes and townhomes, in neighborhoods like Nottingham, Thornwood, Wilchester, and Barkers Landing. Many are one or two stories on slabs, so water spreads across the floor of a single-story home or, in a two-story home, travels down from an upper floor. Whatever the home, the first step is to find where the water went, including what has soaked in out of sight, and dry it fully before mold sets in.
First steps if you have water damage in 77079
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, and off the lower floor first in a two-story home.
- 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.
