Network status in Dallas: no operators are listed here yet. The network is being built, and we don't have job-volume figures for this area to share. We'll be upfront about what we see before you commit to anything.
How the marketplace works for operators
- Homeowners request jobs. They describe the work on Flood.co by ZIP and service.
- We turn it into a job brief. The request is structured the way an estimator would want it, not just a name and a phone number.
- The brief goes to a matching operator. It's routed to an operator in the network who covers that ZIP and does that service, not blasted to a list of companies.
- You quote and do the work directly. The job, and payment for it, are between you and the customer.
What's in a job brief
- ZIP code and matched metro area
- Service and urgency (right now, today, this week, scheduling)
- Property type
- When the water started, and where it came from
- Whether water is still coming in or standing
- How much of the home is affected, and what's wet
- Insurance claim status: yes, no, or not sure
- Mold signs: smell, visible, both, or none noticed
- A short description in the homeowner's words
- Photos, when provided (the same ones an insurer will want)
- Contact details and consent to be contacted
The Dallas market: what jobs look like
Common job drivers
- Intense storms can cause fast flash flooding along creeks and low roads.
- Slab leaks, failed supply lines, and water heaters cause much of the indoor water damage.
- Hail and wind damage roofs, and roof leaks can wet attics, ceilings, and insulation.
- Hard freezes can burst pipes.
Area context
Dallas–Fort Worth is a large patchwork of separate cities, each with its own permit office and codes. A home in Plano, Frisco, or Arlington is governed by that city, not by Dallas.
Texas rules your customers will ask about
- Texas licenses mold assessors and remediators through the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation: Mold Assessors and Remediators.
- TDLR's FAQ says that in most instances, visible mold covering less than 25 contiguous square feet can be cleaned by people who aren't licensed, and that exemptions apply to some residential properties, including houses and buildings with fewer than 10 rental units (TDLR: Mold FAQ). Ask any company which rule they're working under.

What Dallas homeowners ask about
From our homeowner guide for Dallas.
Is a burst pipe covered like a flood?
No. Flood insurance covers flooding; sudden plumbing leaks are usually handled under homeowners policies, with conditions. Check your policy and document everything before cleanup.
Where can I check flood risk in Dallas–Fort Worth?
FEMA's official flood maps show mapped flood zones. Your city may also publish local floodplain information.
Pricing and fees
Operators, not homeowners, pay to receive job requests. We haven't published pricing yet. We'll go over fees with you before you receive any job, and sending the interest form costs nothing.
Joining the network in Dallas
Can I get job requests from Dallas through Flood.co?
That's what this page is for. Send your company details and service area, and we'll follow up about routing Dallas job briefs to you. The network is new, so we'll be clear about request volume before you commit.
Do I need an office in Dallas?
No. You need to actually serve Dallas or the ZIP codes you choose. We won't list you anywhere you don't work.
Who pays?
Homeowners don't pay. Operators pay to receive job requests. We haven't published pricing; we'll go over it with you before you receive any jobs, and filling in the interest form doesn't commit you to anything.
Can I join for water only, or mold only?
Yes. Choose water damage, mold, or both. Mold briefs only go to companies that do mold work, and in states that license mold assessment or remediation, we'll check your license first.
