(903) 251-9525What We Handle
Water Damage Mitigation in Garrison
The primary risk in Nacogdoches County is moisture intrusion driven by high annual rainfall, dense pine-forest terrain, and red clay and fine sandy loam soils that move water toward foundations rather than away from them. We respond to all damage types: burst pipes, appliance failures, storm-driven flooding, and smoke contamination.
Water Damage Mitigation
Emergency water extraction, structural drying, moisture mapping, and dehumidification for Garrison homes and businesses. We follow ANSI/IICRC S500 standards. Nacogdoches County receives over 48 inches of rain per year, and the Nacogdoches-series fine sandy loam and red clay soils in this area can saturate quickly, pushing water toward and beneath structures. We respond fast to limit secondary damage.
Call for This →Fire, Smoke & Mold Remediation Near Garrison
Soot removal, smoke odor elimination, HEPA air filtration, and structural stabilization following ANSI/IICRC S740 standards. Rural homes along U.S. Highway 59 and the surrounding Nacogdoches County timber country carry elevated risk during dry seasons when wildfire conditions develop. Older structures in the Garrison area built pre-1980 may also require careful assessment before mitigation proceeds.
Call for This →Mold Remediation
Mold (what restoration professionals classify as microbial growth) is a documented secondary risk in Nacogdoches County, driven by annual rainfall averaging over 48 inches and persistent seasonal humidity in the Pineywoods region. Older pier-and-beam homes are particularly vulnerable, as crawl-space moisture migrates upward into subfloor assemblies before it becomes visible inside. We follow ANSI/IICRC S520 standards. Containment, removal, and documentation included.
Call for This →Asbestos & Lead Abatement
Garrison has homes built during the town's active brick and clay-mining economy of the early 1900s through the mid-twentieth century. Structures of this era may contain asbestos in insulation and lead in paint, materials requiring licensed abatement before mitigation work can proceed safely. We coordinate abatement through licensed, state-certified specialists and manage the process as your single point of contact.

About Garrison, TX (Nacogdoches County)
Field Note: Garrison, TX
Nacogdoches County averages approximately 48 to 52 inches of annual rainfall, among the highest totals in East Texas. The dominant Nacogdoches-series soils in this area are fine sandy loam over strongly acidic red clay subsoils. When saturated, this clay layer dramatically slows drainage and redirects surface water toward foundations and crawl spaces, a condition that makes even moderate rain events a potential source of water intrusion in homes across the county.
Garrison is a small community in Nacogdoches County, located approximately 18 miles north of Nacogdoches on U.S. Highway 59. The town was named for Captain J. H. Garrison, who sold land to the Houston, East and West Texas Railroad in 1884, and the town's first train arrived in 1886. According to the Texas Escapes historical record, Garrison's early economy was built on a sawmill, a real-estate and crosstie business, and mineral springs that briefly made the town a minor health resort in the late 1800s.
The area's economy later diversified into clay mining for firebrick and small coal deposits. The coal mines ceased operations after 1929, but the clay industry remained part of the local economy. According to the Handbook of Texas, Garrison made history in 1937 when it elected Maud Irwin as the first female mayor in Texas. Today the town sits in the Pineywoods region, surrounded by mixed pine and hardwood forest on upland soils, with a population of approximately 789 as of 2020.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions: Restoration in Garrison
Garrison sits in one of the wettest parts of East Texas, and when water damage happens it can move fast through older structures. Stop the source if safe to do so. Do not move anything. Call us immediately at (903) 251-9525. We will walk you through what to do while our team is in transit from Arp.
Garrison is approximately 55 to 60 minutes from our Arp (Smith County, TX) headquarters via U.S. 259 and U.S. 59. We dispatch immediately when you call and keep you informed throughout transit. We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including holidays.
Not necessarily, and we would encourage you not to throw anything away before we have had a chance to look at it. Our contents team can assess what is restorable versus what is not, and we have consistently saved homeowners items they assumed were total losses. This includes furniture, documents, electronics, clothing, artwork, and more. Call us before you move anything.
We document the loss thoroughly from the moment we arrive, photographs, moisture readings, scope of work, and timeline. We share that documentation with your adjuster and are available to answer their questions throughout the process. Coverage decisions remain between you, your adjuster, and your agent.
Mitigation is the process of stopping damage, stabilizing the structure, removing moisture, soot, smoke, or microbial growth, and protecting the property from further loss. Cantt handles mitigation and remediation. Reconstruction (rebuilding walls, replacing flooring) is a separate scope of work performed by a general contractor. We will help you understand the distinction when we assess your property.
Mold (what restoration professionals classify as microbial growth) should be taken seriously and addressed promptly. Nacogdoches County's high annual rainfall and humid Pineywoods climate create favorable conditions for microbial growth, especially in crawl spaces and behind walls after any water event. We follow ANSI/IICRC S520 standards for mold remediation. The right response depends on the extent and type of growth. We assess this when we arrive. Call us and we will walk you through it.
No. Cantt Restoration is an independent company based in East Texas. Every team member is someone we hired and trained. When you call, you reach us directly, not a national dispatch center.

Those decisions remain between you, your adjuster, and your agent.
