Plumbing pricing in Georgetown, TX
Most Georgetown plumbing bills fall into three buckets: a diagnostic/service call, a parts-and-labor repair, or a larger replacement job. These ranges assume a licensed local plumber working standard hours.
| Job | Typical Georgetown range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard service call / diagnosis | $125–$275 | Often credited toward approved repair same day |
| Clear a simple drain clog | $150–$400 | — |
| Main-line cabling or hydro-jet | $325–$850 | — |

| Emergency/after-hours plumber call | $250–$650 | Separate from any repair cost |

| Sewer line repair (dig-and-replace per section) | $2,500–$9,000 | — |
- Edwards Aquifer hard-water scaling shortens water-heater and fixture life, so replacements trend higher than national averages.

- Williamson County permit requirements on gas, re-pipes, and water-heater swaps add $75–$250 depending on scope.
HVAC pricing in Georgetown, TX
Georgetown's long cooling season pushes equipment hard, so full replacements are common every 12–18 years. These ranges cover single-unit residential systems in typical Georgetown homes.
| Job | Typical Georgetown range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Service call + diagnosis | $95–$250 | Commonly credited toward approved repair |

| Annual maintenance (tune-up) | $95–$225 | — |
- Triple-digit summer load accelerates compressor, capacitor, and contactor wear vs. national baselines.
- Two-story layouts common in Wolf Ranch / Sun City add ductwork complexity and zoning decisions to replacement scope.
- SEER2 efficiency tier chosen can swing a replacement by $2,000–$4,000 for the same tonnage.
Roofing pricing in Georgetown, TX
Georgetown roofing quotes swing widely because of hail history, underlayment/decking condition at tear-off, and whether ventilation or flashing detail is included. Ranges assume asphalt shingle on typical single-family roofs.
| Job | Typical Georgetown range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Inspection + written report | Up to $250 | Free inspection common, paid report more thorough |

- Decking replacement discovered during tear-off is almost always additional and priced per sheet ($75–$125 installed).
- Steep-pitch or two-story sections with limited access add labor; single-story walk-up roofs price near the low end.
Electrical pricing in Georgetown, TX
Most residential electrical work in Georgetown is scoped per-circuit or per-fixture, with panel upgrades and EV circuits being the common larger jobs. Permits and inspections are typical.

Foundation pricing in Georgetown, TX
Central Texas expansive clay soil makes foundation movement a common Georgetown concern. Most quotes are scoped per pier or per linear foot, with engineer reports often required.

| Interior slab crack injection (epoxy/poly) | $500–$1,800 | — |

| Drainage correction (french drain, regrade) | $1,800–$7,500 | — |
- Expansive clay soil swells and shrinks with moisture — most Georgetown foundation issues trace back to drainage, not failure.
- Engineer reports ($350–$950) are often the first step and sometimes required by lenders or HOAs.
- Pressed concrete piers vs. steel piers vs. slab-crack injection have very different scope and price.
Pest control pricing in Georgetown, TX
Most pest-control work in Georgetown is scoped as an initial treatment + a maintenance plan. Rodent exclusion and termite jobs price separately.
| Job | Typical Georgetown range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Initial general pest treatment | $175–$425 | — |

- Fire-ant pressure in spring/summer and scorpion activity in rockier sub-areas (Berry Creek, parts of Serenada) affect treatment frequency.
- Rodent exclusion — sealing entry points, not just trapping — is the part most homeowners under-budget for.
- Termite inspections are often free with a plan but remediation is scoped separately.
Landscaping pricing in Georgetown, TX
Landscape and lawn-care quotes in Georgetown are driven more by frequency and scope than by job type. Irrigation tuning is the highest-ROI project for most homes in a drought cycle.
| Job | Typical Georgetown range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly lawn maintenance (standard lot) | $45–$95 | — |
| Seasonal cleanup + mulch refresh | $350–$1,200 | — |

| Irrigation tune-up | $125–$350 | — |
| Sod replacement (per 500 sqft) | $450–$1,100 | — |
| Tree trim (mid-size, from ground) | $275–$850 | — |
- Water restrictions during drought cycles affect scope and plant choices more than price per visit.
- Mulch refresh + shrub trim paired together is the most common "reset" project and more economical than either alone.
- Sod replacement and new-bed installs are the most weather-dependent — spring and fall windows are cheaper than mid-summer.
House cleaning pricing in Georgetown, TX
Recurring cleans are the most common product; deep and move-out cleans are scoped separately because they are labor-heavy. Ranges are for typical 3-bed / 2-bath Georgetown homes.

| Recurring clean (weekly, 3/2 home) | $120–$200 | — |

| Move-out clean (empty home) | $325–$650 | — |
| Post-construction clean | $450–$1,200 | — |
- Recurring frequency (weekly vs biweekly vs monthly) moves the per-visit price more than square footage for most homes.
- Move-out cleans are priced on condition, not square footage — empty + vacant cleans cheaper than furnished.
- Pet households often see a small add-on charge per visit for fur / paw-print surfaces.

Are these Georgetown price ranges quotes?
No. These are editorial ranges for planning, reviewed quarterly based on public Central Texas contractor pricing and local market conditions. Your actual quote depends on scope, discovery during work, and the provider. Always get two written estimates before committing.
Why are some Georgetown home-service prices higher than national averages?
Central Texas clay soil, Edwards Aquifer hard water, and a long cooling season all shorten equipment life and increase labor complexity for plumbing, HVAC, and foundation work. Williamson County permit requirements on panel, gas, and water-heater jobs also add $75–$250 relative to jurisdictions without similar rules.
How often do you update these Georgetown pricing ranges?
We review every range on this page quarterly. The current revision is dated April 2026. If a category (like roofing after a hail event) is moving fast, we refresh that section early and note the review date on the table.
Before you commit: a 3-step comparison checklist
- Get two written estimates for the same scope. Verbal numbers drift; written scopes let you compare line-by-line.
- Ask what is excluded. Permits, decking replacement on roofs, slab access on plumbing, and electrical breaker upgrades are the usual "added on discovery" items.
- Confirm timeline and warranty in writing. A 1-year labor warranty is standard for most jobs; equipment manufacturer warranties are separate and usually longer.
