Water damage restoration in Jacksonville, Arkansas
Jacksonville has its own water works, its own sewer commission and a weather station at Little Rock Air Force Base that set a cold record in 2021.

Not Central Arkansas Water
Little Rock and North Little Rock share Central Arkansas Water. Jacksonville does not. Jacksonville Water Works, at 1900 Marshall Road, lists 501-982-6561 as its 24-hour emergency number for problems like a broken main or a leak at the meter. Its yearly drinking water reports cover both the city and Little Rock Air Force Base.
Sewer is a separate body again. The water works' site says the Jacksonville Sewer Commission operates and maintains the city's sewer system and its wastewater treatment plant, the Dr. J. Albert Johnson Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. If sewage is backing up into a house, the city sewer side is the first call; the sewer backup page explains how to tell a blocked main from a blocked house line.
The cold that reached Jacksonville first
Those numbers come from NWS Little Rock statements after each event. Cold like that freezes pipes in outside walls, garages and crawl spaces, and the leaks appear on the first warm afternoon. The burst and frozen pipes page covers thawing safely and what to do when a line splits.
Where the 2023 tornado ended its run
The EF3 tornado of March 31, 2023 started in west Little Rock, crossed North Little Rock and Sherwood, near Kiehl Avenue and Indianhead Lake, and continued through Jacksonville before weakening southeast of Cabot in Lonoke County, according to the NWS survey. Its full path was 34.4 miles.
A storm like that leaves two jobs behind: the roof, and the water that came in through it. Insulation that soaked up rain can hold water against the ceiling drywall for days. The storm page covers what usually comes first.
Getting help here
