Older homes and new construction in Acres Homes
Acres Homes is known for its large original lots and older homes, and in recent years 77088 has become one of the busiest parts of the city for renovation and new building, so older houses sit next to newly built ones on the same streets. Older homes may have aging plumbing and original materials that need a careful drying approach, while newer two-story homes let water from an upper-floor leak travel down into the rooms below. Whatever the home, part of the work is finding the moisture that has soaked in out of sight and drying it fully before mold sets in.

White Oak Bayou and flood risk in 77088
77088 is in the White Oak Bayou watershed, and low-lying ground and streets with older or open-ditch drainage can take on water when heavy rain overwhelms the system. Where a property sits, and how well its street drains, makes a real difference to its flood risk. When storm water reaches a home, it comes in at floor level and can be contaminated, and once it does, it soaks into flooring, drywall, and framing within hours, with mold able to begin growing within a day or two.
First steps if you have water damage in 77088
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 contaminated water, since sewage and flood water can carry bacteria.
- 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.
