Why Choose Georgetown Foundation Repair & Waterproofing

Fifteen years of foundation work in Central Texas clay taught us that most homeowners just want a straight answer.

15+ YRS

Local, Not a Franchise

We've worked the Blackland Prairie clay under Georgetown, Leander, and Round Rock since 2011. We know how it moves through drought and downpour, because we've re-leveled homes through both.

FREE

Honest, No-Pressure Estimates

Every inspection includes a written, itemized estimate — no "sign today" discounts, no scare tactics. If your foundation doesn't need work, we'll tell you that too.

LIFETIME

Warrantied, Engineer-Backed Fixes

Our push pier and drainage systems carry a transferable warranty, and larger repairs are backed by a Texas-licensed structural engineer's report — useful at resale, too.

The Real Problem

Why Georgetown Foundations Move

🌵 The Problem: Expansive Clay + Texas Weather Swings

Williamson County sits on Blackland Prairie clay that can swell over 30% when it's wet and shrink hard during drought. When we swing from a 90-day dry spell straight into heavy spring rain, that soil expands and contracts unevenly under your slab — and that's when you start seeing stair-step cracks in brick, doors that won't latch, and gaps around windows. Left alone, it gets worse and more expensive every cycle.

🔧 The Fix: Diagnose First, Then Engineer a Permanent Solution

We start with a free inspection and elevation survey to find exactly where and why your foundation is moving — not just where the cracks show up. From there we recommend the least invasive fix that actually solves it: often steel push piers or helical piers set to load-bearing strata, paired with drainage work so the soil around your slab stays consistently moist instead of swinging wet-to-dry.

Beyond Foundation Repair

CRAWL SPACE // ENCAPSULATION

Crawl Space Encapsulation

A vented crawl space under a Georgetown home pulls in humid air that rots joists and feeds mold. We seal it with a heavy vapor barrier and, where needed, a dehumidifier — protecting your home's structure and indoor air quality.

DRAINAGE // FRENCH DRAINS

French Drain Installation

Standing water next to your foundation is often the root cause of the movement you're seeing. A properly sloped French drain redirects it away from your slab before it ever gets the chance to shift the soil beneath your home.

How much does foundation repair cost in Georgetown, TX?

$2,318 – $6,750+ per repair area

Most Georgetown homes need 4–10 piers depending on the size and severity of settlement, with individual pier segments typically running $2,318–$6,750+. Full-home underpinning on larger or more severely affected foundations can run $20,000+. Your free inspection includes an itemized, pier-by-pier estimate — no flat "whole house" guess.

Do I need a permit? Most Williamson County municipalities require a permit for foundation pier work, and we handle that paperwork as part of the job. Larger repairs typically include a stamped report from a Texas-licensed structural engineer, which documents the fix for future buyers and lenders. Most residential jobs take 1–3 days.

Basement Waterproofing

Basement Waterproofing Georgetown, TX

Interior drain tile and sump systems, or full exterior membrane waterproofing, to keep your basement dry through Central Texas's heaviest storms.

📞 (512) 555-0173
Basement waterproofing in progress with interior drain tile system

How much does basement waterproofing cost?

$2,000 – $7,000 (interior) / $10,000+ (full exterior)

Interior drain tile with a sump pump typically runs $2,000–$7,000 depending on basement size and water severity. Full-perimeter exterior excavation and membrane waterproofing — the most thorough fix — usually starts around $10,000+. We'll recommend the least invasive option that actually solves your specific water problem.

What's actually included? Interior systems include a drain channel along the basement's perimeter, a sump pit and pump, and a discharge line routed away from the foundation. Exterior systems add excavation, a waterproof membrane against the foundation wall, and new exterior drainage tile. Most interior jobs finish in 1–2 days; exterior work can take 3–5 days depending on access.

Crawl Space Encapsulation

Crawl Space Encapsulation Georgetown, TX

Heavy-duty vapor barrier and moisture control that stops rot, mold, and musty air from a vented crawl space under your home.

📞 (512) 555-0173
Crawl space with vapor barrier being installed on ground and walls

How much does crawl space encapsulation cost?

$1,500 – $5,500

Cost depends mostly on square footage and current moisture levels, with most Georgetown-area crawl spaces running $1,500–$5,500 for a full 12–20 mil vapor barrier, seam sealing, and vent covers. Adding a dedicated crawl space dehumidifier typically adds $1,000–$1,800.

What's included, and why does it matter here? A full encapsulation covers the ground and often the walls with a heavy vapor barrier, seals foundation vents, and insulates the rim joist. In our humid Central Texas summers, an open crawl space pulls in moist air that condenses on cooler wood framing — encapsulation cuts that off at the source, protecting joists and improving indoor air quality upstairs. Most jobs are completed in a single day.

Foundation Crack Repair

Foundation Crack Repair Georgetown, TX

Fast, sealed epoxy or polyurethane injection for non-structural slab and wall cracks — before water, radon, or pests find their way in.

📞 (512) 555-0173
Technician injecting epoxy into a foundation crack

How much does foundation crack repair cost?

$400 – $1,500 per crack

Standard epoxy or polyurethane injection for a hairline-to-moderate crack runs $400–$1,500 per crack. Larger structural cracks that need reinforcement — or that turn out to be a symptom of ongoing settlement — can run $2,000+ and may point us toward a piering solution instead.

How do I know if a crack is a big deal? Hairline vertical cracks under 1/8" are common in Central Texas and usually cosmetic. Watch for horizontal cracks, cracks wider than 1/4", or ones that are actively growing — those warrant a free inspection before any repair, since injecting a crack that's still moving just masks the real problem. Most crack repairs are completed same-day.

French Drain Installation

French Drain Installation Georgetown, TX

Graded drainage piping that pulls standing water away from your foundation before it can saturate the clay soil beneath your slab.

📞 (512) 555-0173
Trench being dug for French drain installation along yard

How much does a French drain cost?

$10 – $25 per linear foot

Pricing runs $10–$25 per linear foot depending on depth, soil conditions, and where the water needs to daylight. A typical Georgetown yard drain runs $1,500–$4,000 installed.

Why does this matter for my foundation? In expansive clay, uneven moisture — not just total rainfall — is what drives foundation movement. A properly sloped French drain (typically a 1% grade minimum) keeps water from pooling against your slab, which keeps the soil moisture more consistent year-round. Most residential installs take 1–2 days depending on run length.

Sump Pump Installation

Sump Pump Installation Georgetown, TX

New sump pump installs, replacements, and battery backup systems so your basement or crawl space stays dry — even if the power goes out.

📞 (512) 555-0173
Sump pump basin being installed in basement floor

How much does sump pump installation cost?

$800 – $2,200 installed

A standard sump pump install runs $800–$2,200 depending on whether we're cutting a new basin or replacing an existing one. Adding a battery backup system — recommended for anyone who's lost power during a storm — typically adds $300–$600.

Do I really need a battery backup? Central Texas's worst rain events often come with the storms that also knock out power — exactly when a sump pump matters most. A battery backup keeps your pump running for several hours during an outage, which is often the difference between a dry basement and a flooded one. Installation typically takes half a day.

Our Story

About Georgetown Foundation Repair & Waterproofing

Founded in Georgetown, TX in 2011, Georgetown Foundation Repair & Waterproofing started with one crew and a simple idea: tell homeowners the truth about their foundation, then fix it right the first time. Fifteen years and thousands of Williamson County homes later, that's still the whole business plan.

15 Years in Central Texas Clay

We've spent a decade and a half working the same Blackland Prairie clay that runs under Georgetown, Leander, Round Rock, and Cedar Park. That's given our crew a feel for how local soil behaves through drought years and flood years alike — knowledge that doesn't come from a franchise training manual, only from doing the work here, year after year.

Every technician on our crew is background-checked, factory-trained on the pier and drainage systems we install, and supervised by a licensed team lead on structural jobs. We're licensed and insured in the State of Texas, and larger repairs are backed by a stamped report from a Texas-licensed structural engineer.

What You Can Expect From Us

  • Free, no-pressure inspection with a written, itemized estimate
  • Transferable warranty on push pier and drainage systems
  • Licensed, insured, and background-checked crew
  • Engineer-backed documentation for larger repairs
  • Straight talk — we'll tell you when you don't need a repair
