In the heart of the DFW metroplex along the Trinity River, Irving faces flash flooding from North Texas storms and slab leaks driven by expansive clay.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Trinity River and storm flooding<\/h2>\n

Irving straddles the Trinity River corridor, where heavy North Texas storms and river rises flood low-lying areas, and hail can breach roofs. The Texas Emergency Water Damage Checklist<\/a> covers the regional picture and an emergency checklist.<\/p>\n

Clay soil and slab leaks<\/h2>\n

Irving’s expansive clay shifts foundations and cracks slabs, stressing the plumbing inside and causing slab leaks that surface inside the home. Watch for a rising water bill and warm floor spots, and verify dryness in the Texas heat.<\/p>\n
