With a flood record like this county's, water damage restoration and round-the-clock emergency response come first.
Three federal declarations since July 2025
FEMA has named Kendall County three times since the summer of 2025, and each declaration lists the county for Public Assistance. DR-4879 came first, on July 6, 2025. EM-3649 followed on July 18, 2026, under Public Assistance Category B, and FEMA declared DR-4935 on September 1, 2026, covering July 12 to August 4, 2026. As of October 2026, FEMA still listed the EM-3649 incident as continuing.
The Boerne Star tallied the local toll on July 22, 2026: at least 100 damaged homes in the county. On the Guadalupe River, the gauge at Comfort reached 37 feet, about 1 to 2 feet above its July 4, 2025 level. Boerne and Kendall County both signed local disaster declarations.
Rain records from 1997 and 2002
The record goes back decades. The US Geological Survey (USGS) describes June 21 and 22, 1997, when up to 18 inches of rain poured down in two days, centered in Kendall County. Across that event, eight stream gauges set record peaks, and property damage eligible for disaster assistance came to about 10.4 million dollars.
Then came 2002. From June 30 to July 7, as much as 35 inches fell, heaviest in the Hill Country northwest of San Antonio, with one of its rain centers in Kendall County. Across the whole event, the USGS counts 12 deaths and about 1 billion dollars in damage. The Texas Tribune's history of Hill Country flooding is worth your time.
What we do once water is inside
It starts with a call, day or night, and an assessment of where the water went and what it soaked. Extraction comes next. Then we dry the framing and subfloor, checking moisture readings until the materials test dry.
Mold changes the job: if walls stayed wet long enough for it to grow, we contain it and remove it. Need a room cleared? Contents pack-out covers packing, inventory, storage and the return of your belongings. Our water damage cleanup steps page walks through each stage, and fire, smoke or mold emergencies fall under emergency restoration, day or night. We help document the damage and work with your insurance carrier throughout the restoration process.
Where we fit in a growing county
Kendall County is growing. Census figures (Vintage 2025) put its July 1, 2025 population at an estimated 53,289, up 20.3% from a 2020 estimates base of 44,301. That's nearly 9,000 more people since 2020.
Veteran-owned and operated, Texas Damage Response serves Kendall County from San Antonio, where we're based. We also cover Bexar County to the southeast and Comal County to the east, and the full list of service areas across South and Central Texas shows the rest. Boerne homeowners get their own page: Boerne water damage restoration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Three, each listing the county for Public Assistance: DR-4879 (July 2025), EM-3649 (July 2026) and DR-4935 (September 2026, covering July 12 to August 4).
Designations can change after the fact, so check FEMA's DR-4935 page for anything added after October 2026.
Yes. Emergency response runs 24/7, nights and weekends included. Let us know what leaked and how far it traveled, and we'll set up the assessment.
Timing depends on where you are and what hour it is, and we'd rather tell you on the phone than guess on a web page.
Yes, by the Texas Tribune's account. It places this part of the Hill Country inside that nicknamed swath of Texas, with the Balcones Escarpment, a major geological feature, cutting across Central Texas.
That describes the terrain, not your house. Our work is water damage from sources like pipes, appliances and fixtures, and our line is open 24/7.
