Why Melissa Homeowners Choose Warrior Restoration

Restoration That Keeps Up With Melissa's Growth

Willow Wood, Melissa Gateway Village, and the subdivisions filling in along the East Melissa growth area are adding rooftops faster than almost anywhere else in Collin County, and every one of those new homes eventually needs a restoration company that does not disappear once the water is gone. Warrior Restoration LLC keeps the same crew on a job start to finish. Owner Justin Miller runs a dedicated crew of 6 with 3 fully stocked response trucks, handling emergency extraction, structural drying, wall-cavity drying, and full reconstruction of drywall, paint, trim, and flooring -- no handoff to a second contractor once the meters read dry.

Every job, new-construction supply-line failure or otherwise, carries a limited lifetime warranty on both the workmanship and the equipment used. Because Justin works the job personally instead of routing your file through a call center, you get one point of contact who is accountable for the outcome from the first call through the final walkthrough.

What We Do

Our Comprehensive Water Damage Services

Every service below is performed in house by our IICRC-certified crew -- nothing gets subcontracted out.

Emergency Water Extraction

The first move on any call: pull standing water off floors, out of carpet, and out of pad before it has time to soak deeper into the structure.

Flood Damage Cleanup

From a burst supply line to a failed appliance hose, we clean up the flood water, haul off what cannot be saved, and sanitize every area it reached.

Structural Drying

Industrial dehumidifiers and high-velocity air movers pull moisture out of walls, subfloors, and framing to certified standards -- before mold gets a foothold.

Moisture Mapping

Calibrated meters and thermal imaging cameras locate water that has traveled inside walls or under flooring, then track it daily until it reads dry.

Wall-Cavity Drying

Injectidry panels force dry air behind drywall and through floor cavities so the structure dries in place instead of being demoed out.

Roof-Leak Water Repair

Interior damage from a roof leak -- ceilings, insulation, drywall -- dried out and rebuilt so the room shows no sign the leak ever happened.

Mold Prevention

Fast drying paired with antimicrobial treatment keeps mold from starting in the first place. If it has already started, our AMRT-certified crew handles remediation too.

Repairs & Reconstruction

Drywall, paint, trim, and flooring, handled by the same crew that dried the house. No second contractor to schedule or chase for updates.

How We Work

Inside a Water Damage Restoration Project

From the call to the day the structure reads dry and repaired, every job follows the same defined sequence -- no guesswork, no gaps.

Emergency Assessment

We arrive within 1 hour, trace the water back to its source, and map moisture with meters and thermal imaging before any equipment goes down.

Water Extraction

Portable extraction units clear standing water from floors, carpet, and pad right away -- the fastest way to keep the damage from spreading further.

Structural Drying

Industrial dehumidifiers, high-velocity air movers, and Injectidry wall-cavity panels go to work -- often drying materials in place instead of tearing them out.

Moisture Monitoring

Readings get logged daily and antimicrobial treatment goes down to guard against mold. Equipment stays until materials hit certified dry standards.

Repairs Begin

Once the structure is confirmed dry, our in-house crew rebuilds any drywall, insulation, or flooring that had to come out -- no separate contractor to bring in.

Final Reconstruction

Paint, trim, and finish work bring the room back to pre-loss condition. One company carries your home from the first hour through move-in ready.

Insurance Claims

We Handle Your Insurance Claim from Start to Finish

A water claim moves fast and the paperwork gets complicated quickly. Warrior Restoration manages it so you can focus on your family. Here is exactly what happens when you work with us:

  • We bill your insurance carrier directly. You never write us a check. We work straight with your carrier's adjuster and submit the full scope of damage.
  • We meet adjusters on site. Justin walks the property with the adjuster so hidden moisture gets documented before approval, not disputed after the fact.
  • We file supplements. If drying uncovers damage the original approval did not cover, we file supplements directly with your carrier to close the gap.
  • You only pay your deductible. We accept the carrier's approved amount minus your deductible as full payment -- nothing extra out of pocket.
  • We handle mortgage company checks. If your lender is listed on the insurance check, we coordinate with them directly to get funds released.

Free On-Site Estimates

We inspect at no charge and give you a full damage assessment before any work starts.

Water Damage in Melissa

Why Melissa Homes See Water Damage So Young

Melissa's population grew roughly 85% off its 2020 census count of 14,336, with growth still running near 13% a year -- Collin County as a whole ranked second in the country for net population gain between July 2024 and July 2025. Nearly all of that growth showed up as new subdivisions in Melissa Gateway Village and along the East Melissa growth area, so a very large share of the city's housing sits inside its first few years of life.

That matters because the failures we get called out for most in newer Melissa homes are not slab movement -- they are the fittings, hookups, and installs that only get real stress once a house has lived through a full year of temperature swings. A builder's workmanship warranty typically runs about a year, and that is exactly when a supply-line compression fitting under a sink, a water heater pan connection, or an icemaker hookup in Hunters Creek or Willow Wood tends to show its first weakness -- right as the warranty coverage that would have caught it lapses.

Once water is loose behind a wall or under an appliance, it does not stay put. It wicks into fresh drywall and OSB subfloor and can travel into rooms nowhere near the original leak. A surface that looks dry can still be holding enough moisture to grow mold within 24 to 48 hours, which is why we measure instead of guessing.

Professional-grade drying closes that gap. Warrior Restoration runs industrial dehumidifiers, high-velocity air movers, and wall-cavity panels to dry a Melissa home to certified standards -- not just until it feels dry.

STILL GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

The questions Melissa homeowners ask us most after a water loss, answered plainly. Dial (903) 993-5663 and you'll be talking to someone on our crew, not a dispatcher.

Because it's brand new, not despite it. Melissa's housing stock is among the youngest in Collin County -- most of Melissa Gateway Village, Willow Wood, and the East Melissa growth area has gone up in just the last few years -- and a builder's workmanship warranty on supply-line connections, water heater installs, and appliance hookups typically runs out right around the one-year mark. That's exactly when we start getting calls: a compression fitting behind a dishwasher, a poorly seated water heater pan, or an icemaker line that was never fully tightened finally lets go once the warranty coverage that would have caught it has already lapsed.
It happens more often than you'd think in Melissa's newer subdivisions, where framing and drywall are so fresh that moisture can travel further before it's visible. If we open a wall cavity in a Hunters Creek or Willow Wood home and find damage the original scope didn't account for, we document it with photos and moisture readings and file a supplement directly with your carrier -- you don't have to fight that battle yourself, and it doesn't hold up the rest of the job.
In most cases, yes. A single-room supply-line failure in a Melissa Gateway Village or East Melissa growth-area home usually lets us contain the affected area with negative-air equipment while the rest of the house stays fully livable. If the water reached HVAC returns, multiple rooms, or your only bathroom, we'll tell you plainly during the initial walkthrough instead of assuming, and help you sort out temporary housing through your insurance if it's needed.
Both, under one roof. With so much of Melissa's housing only a few years old, most of the jobs we run are supply-line and appliance failures inside walls and under floors -- the same crew that extracts the water and runs the drying equipment also repairs the drywall, trim, paint, and flooring afterward. You are not handed off to a separate contractor once the structure reads dry.
We map moisture with calibrated meters and thermal imaging on the first visit, then track readings daily while industrial dehumidifiers and high-velocity air movers run. Melissa's new-construction materials -- OSB subfloor, engineered framing, fresh drywall -- can hold moisture well below the surface even when everything feels dry, so equipment stays in place until readings hit certified dry standards, not until it looks fine.
Yes -- mold can start colonizing damp material within 24 to 48 hours, and in a tightly built newer home a slow leak behind a cabinet or under an appliance can run for days before anyone notices a soft spot in the floor or a spike in the water bill. Our technicians hold IICRC AMRT certification for microbial remediation, so if growth has already started by the time we reach a Melissa call, we contain and remediate it as part of the same visit.
