Startzville is the community along FM 2673 on the south side of Canyon Lake, between Sattler and the dam, named for the Startz family who farmed here before the lake. It grew with the reservoir after 1964: lake cabins on small lots in the 1960s and 1970s, retirement homes in the 1980s and 1990s, and newer two-story builds on the ridges with lake views. Water comes from the Texas Water Company or private wells, and most lots are on septic.
The ground is limestone with little soil over it, and the slabs here sit close to rock. The lake itself rarely reaches houses, since the Corps holds the flood pool, but the low lots nearest the shore went under in 2002 and watched the water climb in July 2025. The more common losses are pipes and tanks, and in winter the freeze breaks in cabins nobody checked.
This site routes Startzville homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider inspects first and writes the scope after.
A 1970s cabin with a split line behind paneling is leak detection before the paneling comes off. An attic tank over a 2010 two-story is water heater leak cleanup. Standing water on a slab after any of these is water extraction, then drying.
Startzville has no city hall, so permits come from Comal County, and a floodplain permit applies to any lot below the Corps' flood-pool elevation. Tell the crew whether the house is on septic, because a backup during a wet spring is handled as a contaminated loss, and whether the house is a rental with guests on the calendar.
Call (830) 356-7502 and say what is wet. We route the call to a local water damage provider serving Startzville.
