One of the fastest-growing cities in the country, Frisco is full of newer slab homes — but North Texas storms and expansive clay still drive flash flooding and slab leaks here.
Storms and flash flooding

Clay soil and slab leaks

Frequently asked questions
Do new Frisco homes get water damage?
Yes. Even newer homes sit on slabs over expansive clay that shifts and cracks slabs, causing slab leaks, and North Texas storms still bring flash flooding and hail that damages roofs.
How does clay soil cause water damage in Frisco?
Expansive North Texas clay swells and shrinks with the seasons, shifting foundations and cracking slabs, which stresses the plumbing inside and causes slab leaks that surface in the home.
What are the signs of a slab leak in Frisco?
Watch for a rising water bill, warm floor spots, the sound of running water with everything off, and low pressure. A water-meter test with all fixtures off can confirm it.
