The crew documents readings and photos so the homeowner can submit the loss to the insurance carrier for review.
In South Dallas, TX, many early to mid-century homes sit on the flat, clay-rich soil of the Blackland Prairie.

Aging plumbing infrastructure from the neighborhood's historic build-out, combined with the flat, clay-heavy terrain that can slow drainage, makes South Dallas homes susceptible to drain backups, particularly during the region's intense rainfall events.
