Northwest San Antonio · ZIP 78238
78238 covers the Leon Valley area, Evers Park and the southern Huebner Road corridor. Leon Creek and Huebner Creek both run through this ZIP, and this is genuinely one of the more flood-exposed parts of north-west San Antonio — a fact reflected in the city's long-running drainage improvement work here.
Our west side branch at 4534 W César E Chávez Blvd is the closest crew base to this ZIP, covering the West Side, Edgewood, Las Palmas and the Highway 90 corridor. Within 78238 we serve Leon Valley Enclave, Linkwood, Huebner Road South, Evers Park and Crystal Hills.
1960s–1980s single-story slab homes across Linkwood, Evers Park and Crystal Hills, with commercial frontage along Bandera and Evers Roads. Much of this housing sits on relatively low ground within the creek drainage.
Leon Creek and Huebner Creek define the risk profile here. Both have substantial mapped floodplains within this ZIP, and Leon Valley has experienced repeated significant flooding events. Properties near either channel carry genuine and well-documented exposure. Away from the creeks, ageing slab plumbing at 45 to 60 years is the standard driver.
The losses we attend most often in this ZIP:
Water running right now? Shut it off at the main if you can reach it safely, cut power to affected areas at the breaker if water is near outlets (never stand in water to do it), photograph everything before moving anything, then call (844) 476-1017. Our west side branch dispatches to 78238 around the clock.
Water damage frequently leads to mold, and fire losses almost always involve water too. We handle all three from the same branches: mold remediation with containment and independent verification, and fire and smoke damage restoration including emergency board-up.
Know your exposure and reduce what you can control. Check your address against the FEMA maps for Bexar County — this ZIP has genuine mapped flood exposure along both Leon Creek and Huebner Creek, with a documented history of significant events. Keep drainage channels near your property clear, know your evacuation route, keep anything irreplaceable off ground level, and photograph the property while it is dry so you have a record of what you had.
There may be. Repeatedly flooded properties can qualify for mitigation or elevation programs through FEMA and local floodplain management. It is worth speaking to the City of San Antonio or Bexar County floodplain management office about your specific property — that is a separate conversation from the restoration work, which we can begin immediately regardless.
Extraction first, then removal of all contaminated porous material — typically drywall and insulation cut back well above the water line, carpet and pad out entirely — then cleaning and antimicrobial treatment of the exposed structure, then drying with monitoring until it reaches a documented standard. Only then does anything go back. Rebuilding over a structure that has not been verified dry is the single most common way flood-damaged houses end up with mold.
