Trace is the master-planned neighborhood on the south side of San Marcos along State Highway 123 at McCarty Lane, a few minutes from the outlet malls at the I-35 interchange. Highpointe Communities opened it in the mid-2010s, and it has grown into phases of one- and two-story slab homes from several builders around an amenity center and pool, with a large apartment phase, Sendero at Trace, added along Van Horn Trace. The HOA runs the amenities and the exterior rules.
The ground is on the Blackland side of the fault, and the first Trace streets are about ten years old, the age when the first round of builder-grade tank heaters on hard water starts to go. The two-story plans put a bath over the family room and the heater in the attic.
This site passes Trace homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. A meter pass through the house comes before the scope.
An attic drain pan that overflowed above the living room is water heater leak cleanup, and the ceiling is metered before the drywall opens. A slab leak that shows as a warm tile in a 2016 house on the clay is a leak detection job. A ceiling stain under an upstairs bath is ceiling water damage repair once the source is found.
Trace sits a short drive from San Marcos Premium Outlets, which means weekend and holiday traffic at the I-35 and Centerpoint interchange can slow a truck coming from the north. Tell the crew the house is in Trace and they will come in from 123 instead.
Call (737) 283-4979 and tell us what is dripping. We pass the call to a local water damage provider serving Trace.
Standing water pulled off slab floors, tile, and rental carpet in a San Marcos house, then every room metered to see where it ran.
Dehumidifiers and air movers run against Hays County humidity until drywall, cabinets, and subfloor read dry on the meter.
A warm tile, a meter that will not stop, or a soft wall traced to a slab line or a wall pipe before anyone opens concrete.
Ceilings, walls, and floors soaked when an attic or exterior-wall line split in a freeze, extracted and dried after the valve closes.
Blanco River silt, Purgatory Creek runoff, and street water pulled out of a ground floor, ruined materials removed, and the house dried.
A failed tank in a garage, closet, or attic, with the ceiling, insulation, and walls below it metered and dried.
A sagging or stained ceiling under an upstairs bath, a roof leak, or an attic unit, opened only as far as the meter says.
Hail-cracked shingles and lifted flashing that let a storm into the attic, with the wet insulation and ceiling dried once the roof is covered.
