Fair Oaks Ranch began as Ralph Fair's cattle ranch and became a city in 1988, and it now spreads across the corner where Bexar, Kendall, and Comal counties meet along I-10 northwest of San Antonio. About 11,000 people live on lots of half an acre to several acres, in custom homes built mostly from the 1980s through the 2010s around a golf course, with the Comal County section north of the interstate toward Bulverde. The city runs its own water system, and the older sections are on septic.
The ground is Glen Rose limestone on the edge of the Hill Country, thin soil over rock. Cibolo Creek begins its run just east of here, and the low crossings on the ranch roads close in a storm. Houses are large and single-story, with long plumbing runs under the slab and water heaters in garages or attics.
This site routes Fair Oaks Ranch homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider inspects before writing anything.
A slow leak under a 4,000-square-foot slab can travel a long way before it shows, so a damp spot far from a bathroom is leak detection first. An attic tank that failed over a guest wing is water heater leak cleanup. After extraction, structural drying in a house this size means equipment in several rooms at once.
The City of Fair Oaks Ranch handles permits and the water system for all of the city regardless of county, which saves the confusion of three courthouses. Tell the crew which county your lot is in anyway, because the floodplain map and the appraisal records live there.
Call (830) 356-7502 and tell us which wing of the house is wet. We route the call to a local water damage provider serving Fair Oaks Ranch.
