Why Gunter Homeowners Choose Warrior Restoration

One Crew Does the Extraction and the Rebuild

Everything the first visit needs comes on the truck: portable extraction units, industrial dehumidifiers, high-velocity air movers, calibrated moisture meters, a thermal imaging camera, Injectidry wall-cavity panels and a generator. The first visit ends with the water out and drying equipment running.

Justin Miller owns Warrior Restoration, works the jobs himself and is a disabled veteran. He runs a crew of 6 and three response units. The same crew that cuts out the wet drywall hangs the new board, textures it, paints it and puts the trim and flooring back, so there's no handoff partway through the job.

What We Do

Our Comprehensive Water Damage Services

The source changes what gets repaired. The order stays the same: get the water out, dry the structure, read it dry, then put back what came out.

Emergency Water Extraction

Portable extraction units pull standing water off tile, hardwood and carpet on the first visit. Wet carpet pad and soaked insulation come out at the same time, before they hold water against the framing.

Flood Damage Cleanup

Water that has crossed a yard or stood under a house comes in dirty. Affected materials come out, HEPA vacuums take the debris, and antimicrobial goes down before any drying equipment is set.

Structural Drying

Air movers and industrial dehumidifiers get sized to the wet area and run until calibrated meters read dry against the standard for each material. The dehumidifiers pull out of the air what the movers lift off the surfaces, which is why both run together.

Moisture Mapping

A thermal imaging camera and calibrated meters show how far the water actually traveled. The wet area gets marked and measured before anything is cut, so the drying plan matches the water instead of the stain.

Wall-Cavity Drying

A line that let go inside a wall wets the cavity from the inside, where a fan in the room reaches nothing. Injectidry panels feed air into the cavity itself, and under flooring the same way, so the board stays on and there's less texture, trim and paint to put back later.

Roof-Leak Water Repair

The interior side of a roof leak: emergency tarping and board-up to stop the next rain, then drying the attic, the insulation and the wall cavities and repairing the ceiling and drywall. Exterior roof repair and replacement is Warrior Roofing, our sister company under the same owner.

Mold Prevention

Mold needs wet material and time. Drying to a measured endpoint takes away the wet material, which is why the readings matter more than the calendar. Where growth is already established, that's a mold remediation job and gets scoped as one.

Repairs & Reconstruction

Board back up, taped, floated and textured to match what's next to it, then paint, baseboard and flooring. The rebuild is in house, not a separate contract.

How We Work

Inside a Water Damage Restoration Project

A water loss runs in a fixed order, and repairs that start early seal wet material behind new material.

Emergency Assessment

We trace where the water came from and how far it has moved. Repairing a failed line or fixture is a plumber's job, and the water needs to be off before drying starts. The structure gets read with a thermal imaging camera and calibrated meters, so the scope is built on what the materials measure rather than on how big the stain looks.

Water Extraction

Portable extraction units take the standing water out. Wet carpet pad, soaked insulation and anything else that won't dry in place comes out with it.

Structural Drying

Air movers and industrial dehumidifiers get placed where the airflow does the work, sized to the wet area. Injectidry panels go in where water sits behind drywall or under flooring so the cavity dries without opening the whole wall.

Moisture Monitoring

Each time we're back at the house, we read the same materials with the same calibrated meters. Those numbers decide when equipment moves, when it comes out, and when the rebuild can start. A drying job ends on a reading, not on a date.

Repairs Begin

Once materials read dry, the rebuild starts: drywall hung, taped and textured to match, then baseboard and trim back on and flooring replaced.

Final Reconstruction

Paint, final trim and cleanup. If the drying turned up damage the first approval missed, the supplement is already with your carrier by then.

Insurance Claims

We Handle Your Insurance Claim from Start to Finish

On an insured loss the carrier side of it is ours. When the numbers on the carrier's estimate don't cover the repair as scoped, we take those line items back to the adjuster. Warrior Restoration is a restoration contractor, not a public adjuster: coverage is your carrier's decision.

  • We bill your insurance carrier directly. We coordinate with your carrier's adjuster and submit the complete scope of damage.
  • We meet adjusters on site. We walk the property with the adjuster so hidden moisture gets documented before approval, not discovered afterward.
  • We file supplements. If drying uncovers damage the original approval didn't cover, we file supplements straight with your carrier.
  • You never owe us anything beyond the deductible. We accept the carrier's approved amount minus your deductible as payment in full.
  • We handle mortgage company checks. If your lender's name is on the insurance check, we coordinate directly with them to get funds released.

Free On-Site Estimates

We inspect at no charge and provide a complete damage assessment before any work begins.

Water Damage in Gunter

Where Your Water Comes From, and What Stops It

Water and wastewater in Gunter come from Mustang Special Utility District, on a small well-fed network. In late July 2022, during extreme heat and drought, two of the town's three municipal wells failed. Available supply fell from roughly 685 gallons an hour to about 85, and the town came close to running out of water entirely.

More houses sit on that network now. Gunter grew 37.5% between the 2010 and 2020 Censuses, from 1,498 people to 2,060, with The Meadows, Hunter's Ridge and Deer Crossing built on land that used to be farmed. What a homeowner controls in any of this is the valve at the house. Find it before you need it and learn which way it turns: that's the one that stops water inside your walls, whatever the pressure at the street is doing.

Pressure that drops and then comes back is worth a walk around the house afterward. Lines that emptied refill under full pressure, and a supply hose or compression fitting that was already weeping can let go when they do. If nobody is home for it, what you notice first is a ceiling stain or a patch of floor that stays damp for days.

None of our drying equipment needs your water on. Extraction units, dehumidifiers, air movers and meters run on power, and we carry generators for the jobs where the power is out. The Gunter Volunteer Fire Department clocked a 74 mph gust in town on the night of Friday 5 September 2025, strong enough to uproot trees and collapse the wood frame of a house under construction. With your water off, your power out, or both, the dry-out starts on the first visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

If your question isn't here, call (903) 993-5663 and ask us.

Shut the water off at the valve for the house. If water is near outlets, fixtures or a panel, cut the power to that area at the breaker. Then call. We take water calls 24/7.
They can be. Don't open the wall yet. A thermal imaging camera and a calibrated meter show how far the water traveled behind the drywall, and that reading decides whether the cavity dries in place with Injectidry panels or the board has to come off.
Until whatever failed is repaired, and that repair is a plumber's job rather than ours. Extraction and drying start before it happens.
The readings set the plan, not the address. In The Meadows, Hunter's Ridge or Deer Crossing we're usually drying drywall, subfloor and framing in place, with Injectidry panels behind the walls where the cavity is wet. Older assemblies take water on more slowly and give it up more slowly, so they sit under equipment longer.
As long as the material takes. A carpet pad gives up water quickly, a wall cavity slower, a subfloor slower again. Equipment stays until the meters read dry against the standard for that material, and those readings are what move it out.
Coverage is your carrier's decision. Our part is documenting the damage and pricing the repair, meeting your adjuster at the house, and filing a supplement if the drying turns up damage the first approval missed. What you pay on an approved claim is the deductible.
