Water damage in Taylor
Taylor is 14 miles from Round Rock, but its housing is far older than the Williamson County average. Census figures show 22% of homes here were built before 1950, against 2% countywide, and 54% before 1980, against 10%. Houses that age may have plaster walls, pier-and-beam floors and original drains, and water that reaches the crawl space under a raised floor can sit there unseen while the joists and subfloor absorb it. Subfloor water damage repair in those homes often means drying from below as well as above.
About 28% of homes are rented and 5% are in buildings with 5 or more units, so leaks usually affect one household. Only 8% of households moved in since 2021, against 15% for the county.
NOAA climate normals show 32 nights a year at or below 32 degrees, enough to split an exposed line under a raised floor, which makes burst pipe cleanup a crawl space job. The town also averages 11 days with an inch of rain or more. FEMA's National Risk Index estimates yearly inland flood loss at 63 per $100,000 of building value, below the county's 70, and just 1.1% of county homes have federal flood insurance.
Taylor: homes built before 1980 and more
About 28% of households in Taylor rent. The building is usually the owner's to repair, so a tenant should tell the landlord about a leak right away.
On about 32 nights a year the temperature near Taylor's ZIP codes drops to freezing or below, so pipes in garages, crawl spaces and outside walls need attention in winter.
Mobile and manufactured homes make up 1% of the housing in Taylor, against 2% across Williamson County.

First steps after a leak in Taylor
Some houses in Taylor may still drain through older cast iron or clay lines, since Census figures show 54% were built before 1980 and 22% before 1950. If water is backing up from a floor drain, tub or toilet, stop using every sink, toilet and appliance in the house, because each flush or rinse adds to the overflow. For a supply leak, close the main shutoff instead. Turn off breakers in wet rooms and stay out of standing water. Photograph the source and the damage, keep children and pets away, and carry belongings out of the room. Backup water is Category 3, so sewage cleanup means removing soaked materials and disinfecting what stays. Call as soon as the water stops rising, so water removal can start. Calls are answered 24/7.
