Water Damage Restoration in Florence, TX
Florence is the northernmost town in Williamson County, on State Highway 195 about thirteen miles north of Georgetown and a half hour from Leander by way of Ronald Reagan Boulevard and FM 970. Settled in the early 1850s as Brooksville and renamed by 1857 when the post office opened, it was a cotton-processing center on the Bartlett Western Railroad from 1909 to 1935. The 2020 census counted 1,171 people, and the town sits at 994 feet on the same limestone shelf as Leander.
The housing is older than anything in Leander: 1900s to 1940s frame houses on piers near the square, 1960s and 1970s brick ranch homes on slabs along the highway, and a handful of 2010s subdivisions on the south edge where Georgetown's growth has reached. The ranch homes have galvanized and copper lines at the end of their lives, and the frame houses have crawl spaces that hold water after a storm.
Your call reaches an independent local water damage provider serving Florence by phone. The provider checks the crawl space and the attic before deciding anything.
Florence water damage in a sixty-year-old ranch house
A galvanized line that finally rusted through in a 1960s slab ranch is a leak detection call, and the crew splits hot from cold at the heater before opening anything. A frame house near the square with water under the floor after a stalled storm is water extraction that starts below. A roof that lost shingles to spring hail is roof leak water damage.
City hall on FM 970 and the district that runs the town's schools
Permits inside the limits go through the City of Florence, whose city hall sits on FM 970; lots outside the limits go through Williamson County. Florence ISD runs the elementary, middle, and high school on College Avenue, and the district took in the Andice school when it closed in 1967.
