Why this call
What is going wrong in a Hurst house?
Hurst brick ranches from the 1960s and 1970s keep the water heater in the garage on a slab. When the hose fails, the garage and the bedroom or kitchen on that wall are one puddle. Apartments around the old Northeast Mall site fail the other way: a riser and a ceiling, no garage. A ranch hose and a mall-area ceiling should not be booked as the same Hurst leak.
- A brick-ranch garage with the heater in standing water.
- The room behind that garage wall already wet.
- A ceiling in an apartment near the old mall site.
Say brick ranch or apartment. On the ranch, say if the water crossed from the garage into the house. On the apartment, say if you own the unit under the drip.
The houses
What gets wet in Hurst?
Hurst is a compact city of 1960s and 1970s brick ranches on slabs, plus apartments around the old Northeast Mall site. The ranches have the water heater in the garage and the baths on a single wet wall. A supply failure in that wall wets the hallway carpet in a straight line.
The water
How does water usually get into a Hurst house?
Indoor breaks are the job: garage heaters, washing machines, and slab leaks in the older ranches. Hurst is not a river city. If the only water is at the curb, say so. If it is on the floor, the crew can be scheduled.
