Fill out our form to inquire about Quick Dry Restoration services.
Our restoration services in Bee Cave, TX cover water damage restoration, mold remediation, fire and smoke damage restoration and the rebuild, for homes and businesses. Quick Dry Restoration holds TDLR mold remediation license RCO 1589, the phone is answered 24 hours a day, and we work directly with your insurance adjuster. Call (512) 540-4747 and tell us what is wet, burned or growing.
We work across Bee Cave, inside the city limits and out: Spanish Oaks, Ladera, Falconhead, The Uplands, Lake Pointe and the Hamilton Pool Road neighborhoods.
The first visit is a free on-site evaluation: moisture readings, photos for your insurance file and a written line-item estimate before any work starts. If you want, we bill the carrier directly.
The February 2021 freeze showed how water losses run here. On February 17, the West Travis County Public Utility Agency texted its service area asking for urgent conservation with demand at summer levels. Lake Travis Fire Rescue, which covers Bee Cave and Lakeway, reported a large influx of broken-pipe calls. In Falconhead West and the rest of WCID 17’s southern service area, two of its three water plants had freeze-related equipment failures and residents were told to expect another 24 to 36 hours without water. Most of Bee Cave’s housing is from the 2000s and 2010s, and new houses freeze too.
The first visit is the same for a split line and creek water: stop the source, pull standing water with industrial water extractors, mark every wet wall, and get commercial dehumidifiers and high-velocity air movers running before the drywall wicks. Creek water is contaminated, so the porous material it touched comes out.
Bee Cave’s houses are young and valuable. About 85 percent were built in 2000 or later, 61 percent in the 2010s alone, and the median owner-occupied home runs more than 40 percent above the Travis County median. In a house like that the finishes are worth saving, and the adjuster expects a line item for each one. So the job is controlled drying: map the wet area with moisture meters and an infrared camera, dry in place where the readings allow it, remove only what will not dry, and photograph and log every step so the estimate holds up.

Quick Dry Restoration is a Texas-licensed mold remediation company, TDLR license RCO 1589; a TDLR-licensed Mold Remediation Contractor leads every job.
Bee Cave’s mold driver is June and July 2026: a creekside or lakeside home in the Lake Travis area took on water in the June 14 storms or the July rise and was mopped up over a weekend. The floor looked dry; the bottom of the drywall and the insulation behind it did not. EPA guidance says dry wet material within 24 to 48 hours, and past that window the first sign is a musty smell.
We start with a free on-site evaluation and a written line-item estimate. At 25 contiguous square feet or more, Texas requires an independent licensed mold assessment consultant to write the protocol and perform the clearance. We work from that plan: contain, remove, HEPA air scrubbers, dry. For a Bee Cave job from first visit to certificate, read Bee Cave mold remediation; the overview is on mold remediation.
Lake Travis Fire Rescue, Travis County ESD No. 6, covers Bee Cave from Station 603 at 13333 Hwy 71 W, with at least four personnel on duty for the city, Lake Pointe and the Uplands. The city sits in the wildland-urban interface, and in the March 2025 D-3 drought it said it wanted to repeat its 2024 goat grazing to cut fuel. The 2011 Labor Day fires were nearby, not here: Steiner Ranch lost nearly two dozen homes, and the Spicewood fire west on Hwy 71 burned about 6,500 acres and at least 67 homes.
After a fire we board up, clean soot off surfaces and ductwork, pack out contents, and rebuild. See fire damage restoration.
Inside the city limits, rebuild permits come from the City of Bee Cave Planning and Development Department, building permitting and inspections division, at City Hall, 4000 Galleria Pkwy, through the MyGovernmentOnline.org portal. The contractor registers with the city first. A permit is required for any remodel that removes or relocates an interior wall or touches plumbing, electrical or mechanical work, and for a replacement water heater or HVAC unit. Painting needs none. The city also tells owners to check HOA deed restrictions even when no permit applies, which matters in a gated subdivision like Spanish Oaks.
Typical scope in a 2010s house: drywall, insulation, base trim, cabinets, flooring and paint, by our own crew. See reconstruction.

Bee Cave sits on the limestone side of the Balcones split. Travis County AgriLife describes the Edwards Plateau as thin soil on exposed limestone, prone to runoff. East of that line the ground is clay that takes water in slowly. Rain here does not soak in, it moves, which is why the city’s Environmental Criteria Manual protects sinkholes and caves as critical environmental features. Water arrives fast and drains fast, and the creek crossings go under for hours, not days.
Some of these are inside the city limits, some are in the ETJ, and some are along Hamilton Pool Road. We work in all of them.
Your adjuster gets dated photos, the moisture map with daily readings, and a written line-item estimate, and we bill the carrier directly when you want us to. One Bee Cave note: creek or lake water that enters the house is flood water, and a standard homeowners policy does not cover it. Flood coverage comes as its own policy. A supply line that splits or a water heater that fails is a different matter, usually covered as a sudden loss. The cause of loss goes in the file on the first visit.
A water line broke and the house valve will not close. Who shuts off the water in Bee Cave?
Your water utility, not City Hall. Bee Cave is not a water provider: most of the city is served by the West Travis County Public Utility Agency, and Falconhead West is on Travis County WCID 17. Call the one on your bill to close the meter, then call us at (512) 540-4747, and we will walk you through getting things off the floor while the crew is on the way.
Do I need a City of Bee Cave permit to rebuild after water or fire damage?
Yes if the rebuild moves or removes an interior wall or touches plumbing, electrical or mechanical work, and always for a replacement water heater or HVAC unit. Repainting needs no permit. Permits run through the Planning and Development Department’s MyGovernmentOnline.org portal, and the contractor must be registered with the city before pulling one. Check your HOA deed restrictions too; the city asks you to even when it does not require a permit.
My house is in Lake Pointe or on Hamilton Pool Road, outside the city limits. Do you cover it?
Yes. Lake Pointe is in Bee Cave’s ETJ, and Rocky Creek, Belvedere and Deer Creek sit on Hamilton Pool Road under Lake Travis Fire Rescue Station 606. The work is the same in all of them. The difference is paperwork: Bee Cave issues permits inside its city limits, so for an address outside them we confirm which office applies before the rebuild starts.
We had water in the house from the June or July 2026 storms and dried it ourselves. Should we still call?
Yes, if anything still smells musty or a wall feels cool or soft to the touch. The EPA window for drying wet material is 24 to 48 hours, and a weekend mop-up rarely dries the bottom plate or the insulation inside the wall. The evaluation is free and on site, and it comes with a written estimate. If the growth covers 25 contiguous square feet or more, Texas requires an independent licensed mold assessment consultant to write the plan first, and we work from it.
The next step is one call: (512) 540-4747. Tell us the neighborhood and what is wet, burned or growing. If a line is still running, we will talk you to the shutoff while the crew is on the way. The office is at 1019 S Heatherwilde Blvd, Suite 120, Pflugerville, TX 78660, and every job starts with a free on-site evaluation and a written line-item estimate.
