Flooding from the San Jacinto River, a tree through the roof, or a burst pipe in your Kingwood home? ARC responds 24/7, dries to IICRC standards, and works directly with your adjuster.
Kingwood is a master-planned community in northeast Houston, developed beginning in 1970 and known as the "Livable Forest" for its wooded neighborhoods and greenbelt trails. It became part of the City of Houston in 1996 and sits along Lake Houston and the West Fork of the San Jacinto River.
That setting brings two main risks: river and lake flooding, and storm damage from trees. We handle both, along with the everyday plumbing and appliance leaks every home eventually has.
Extraction and monitored drying to IICRC S500. Water damage restoration
Contained removal and testing to IICRC S520. Mold remediation
Board-up, soot and odor removal, contents cleaning. Fire & smoke restoration
Tarping, board-up, and full repairs. Storm damage restoration
During Hurricane Harvey in 2017, the West Fork of the San Jacinto River and Lake Houston rose into many Kingwood neighborhoods and businesses. Floodwater is Category 3 and requires full protective protocols.
Tall pines are everywhere in Kingwood. In strong storms, such as Hurricane Beryl in July 2024, falling trees damaged roofs across the area. We provide tarping and board-up before drying.
During Winter Storm Uri in February 2021, frozen pipes burst in homes across the Houston area, many in attics and exterior walls.
Kingwood's villages include homes from the 1970s through recent years. Older homes may have original plumbing and water heaters, while newer ones have more finished space upstairs and in attics. Shade from the canopy keeps homes humid, so wet materials don't dry on their own.
After a flood, the work is extensive: removing contaminated materials, cleaning and treating the structure, drying thoroughly, and rebuilding. One company handling all of it keeps the process and the documentation consistent.
IICRC documentation from day one, Xactimate estimates, and direct billing with all major carriers, so you pay only your deductible. How the claim process works
If it's unsafe, leave and call 911. Otherwise shut off the water, move art and rugs away from wet areas, and leave damaged materials in place for documentation.
We extract from the surface and below, then dry with monitored setups so site-finished wood and stone installations have the best chance of being saved.
Cabinetry, trim, and built-ins are checked with moisture readings before anything is removed. Where removal is needed, we document it first.
Containment, floor protection along work paths, and one point of contact from the first call through the final walk-through.
Our reconstruction team handles drywall, flooring, cabinetry, millwork, and paint, installed to match pre-loss condition.

Yes. We extract water, remove contaminated materials, clean and apply antimicrobial treatment, dry to the IICRC S500 standard, and then rebuild, documenting each stage for your flood or homeowners claim.
That's a question for your agent, but standard homeowners policies usually exclude rising floodwater, and Harvey showed that flooding can reach well beyond the riverbank. If water does get in, we document everything for whichever policy applies.
Yes. Once it's safe, we tarp or board up the opening, extract water, and start drying. We document the damage from the first visit for your claim.
We answer 24/7 and dispatch right away. Our average on-site response time across the Houston area is about two hours, and Kingwood is within our Greater Houston service area.
Yes. Long outages after storms like Beryl in July 2024 can let small leaks, a failed sump, or a warm, closed-up house turn into mold. Once it's safe to work, we extract water, dry the structure, and check for mold growth. We also provide tarping and board-up if the storm opened the roof or broke windows.
