Selma is a small city of about 12,000 that sits where Bexar, Comal, and Guadalupe counties meet on I-35, better known for the Forum shopping center and Retama Park than for its neighborhoods. The homes are newer than the town: most went up after 1995 as slab-built two-stories in subdivisions off FM 1518 and Evans Road, with attic water heaters, HOA fences, and lots sized for a two-car garage and not much yard.
The ground is the transition between the limestone of the escarpment and the clay of the prairie, and some streets have both. Cibolo Creek runs just east of town and floods its crossings; otherwise Selma's water losses come from inside the house, from tanks, dishwashers, and the lines in the attic.
This site routes Selma homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider inspects the house before writing anything.
A tank that let go over a landing is water heater leak cleanup, and the insulation comes out before the ceiling. A ring on a ceiling under the air handler is ceiling water damage repair. After the puddle is mopped, structural drying is what keeps the baseboards from swelling a week later.
The drive-through Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch sits a few miles north on the Comal County limestone, a reminder of how thin the soil gets once you leave the interstate. Repairs inside Selma go through the city's own permit office, and the crew will tell you which county's records to pull if you are near a line.
