Homes, townhomes, and condos in 77098
Upper Kirby's housing runs from ranch homes on established streets to new townhomes and patio homes and on to mid-rise and high-rise condominiums, and much of it is rented. In a single-family home, water spreads across the floor or travels down from an upper story, while in a townhome or condo a leak can move between floors and units. Because so much of the area is rental housing, a leak sometimes goes unnoticed between tenants, so part of the work is finding water that has been sitting out of sight and drying it fully before mold sets in.

Flood and drainage risk in 77098
77098 carries a moderate flood risk, with a share of its properties exposed over the coming decades, and its dense, central location means drainage can be overwhelmed in heavy rain. Low-lying lots and streets are the most vulnerable. When storm water reaches a home or building, it comes in at ground 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 77098
While you wait for help:
- Stop the water at its source if you safely can, or have building management shut off the affected line.
- 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 clear of the water, and off the lower floors first in a multi-level building.
- 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.
