Clifton police have described it simply: rain in town floods the low crossings, and rain to the north floods the river.
| Heavy rain in Clifton | Heavy rain upstream (Hico, Stephenville) | |
|---|---|---|
| What floods | Low-water crossings and low streets in town | The North Bosque River and the land along it |
| Warning time | Minutes to hours | Usually several hours or more |
| Typical sign | Water over the road at a low crossing | Riverside Drive and the Highway 219 bridge closing |
| Risk to homes | Water under doors and into garages | Riverside homes and buildings taking water |
Flood Cleanup in Clifton, TX: The River's Record
- December 1991. The North Bosque crested at 38 feet. Water stood 5 feet deep inside the American Legion post by the river.
- October 2023. The river reached 32.5 feet, about 10 feet above flood stage. FM 1991 closed, and residents were rescued from flooded homes upriver in Meridian.
- May 5, 2024. The river passed 35.8 feet. Highway 6 closed between Clifton and Valley Mills, the Legion post took 2.5 feet of water and a layer of silt, and one man drowned in the floodwater.
The Legion post now has two plaques on one door frame, marking 1991 and 2024. Many riverside homes could show the same.
After river water has been inside
- Photograph the water line and the silt before cleaning.
- Keep the air conditioning off until it is checked.
- Have the mud and water extracted.
- Have carpet, pad, insulation, and wet drywall removed.
- Have the framing cleaned, disinfected, and dried before any wall is closed.
The Norwegian Capital of Texas: Older Homes
Norwegian settlers reached Bosque County in 1854, and Clifton's older buildings show it: limestone, plaster, and old-growth timber. Those materials can usually be saved.
- Plaster often dries in place where drywall would be cut out.
- Old-growth wood floors can frequently be saved if drying starts early.
- Pier-and-beam foundations let water collect underneath, so the crawl space is dried too.
- Older wiring near wet areas stays off until an electrician checks it.
Emergency Water Damage in Clifton, TX: Everyday Leaks
Most calls are not floods. Burst pipes in a hard freeze, failed water heaters, roof leaks after hail, and air conditioner drain lines that overflow in summer. Close the main valve, turn off power to wet rooms, take photos, and call. A clean-water leak in one room usually dries in three to five days.
How the Work Is Done
- Inspect. Moisture readings map floors, walls, ceilings, and crawl spaces.
- Extract. Standing water and silt are removed.
- Remove what cannot be cleaned or dried.
- Clean and disinfect after river water or sewage.
- Dry. Structural drying runs with daily readings.
- Document. Photos, moisture logs, and a written scope.
Flood vs. Everything Else
- River and creek water is flood. A homeowners policy does not cover it, and a new NFIP flood policy usually takes 30 days to start.
- Burst pipes and sudden leaks are usually a homeowners claim.
- Rain through a storm-damaged roof is usually covered too, often with a wind and hail deductible.
Your insurer decides coverage. We document the source, the water line, and the readings.
