Water Damage Restoration in Wells Branch, TX
Wells Branch is the planned community in Travis County just south of the Williamson County line, 13 miles north of downtown Austin and a short drive down I-35 from Round Rock. It was built in the 1980s around Mills Pond and the creek that gives it its name, and its municipal utility district passed from the developer to the residents when they won a majority of the board in 1987. The census counted 7,094 people in 1990 and 14,000 in 2020 on two and a half square miles, which makes it one of the densest places we cover.
The homes are 1980s and early 1990s one- and two-story houses on slabs at about 820 feet, with mature trees, small lots, and forty-year-old copper and galvanized plumbing. Wells Branch creek drains into Walnut Creek and on to the Colorado, and the low streets near the greenbelt take water after a hard rain.
This site routes Wells Branch homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider sees the house before the scope exists.
Wells Branch water damage in a 1980s slab house
A pinhole in forty-year-old copper under the slab shows up as a warm spot or a high bill, and leak detection finds it before the floor comes up. A water heater in the garage or a hall closet that finally rusted through is water heater leak cleanup work. An attic line that split in the February 2021 freeze is burst pipe water damage, and the March 2022 tornado touched down a mile from here before it crossed into Round Rock.
Mills Pond, the MUD, and the Travis County permit desk
Wells Branch MUD runs the water and wastewater system and can close a meter at the curb if the house valve fails. Because the community is unincorporated, repairs that touch plumbing, framing, or wiring pull permits through Travis County rather than Round Rock or Austin.
