Hutto sits about twelve miles southeast of Georgetown on US 79, on the deep Blackland clay where the county turns to farmland. The old town along the railroad has frame houses from the early 1900s, and everything around it, from Hutto Parke and Star Ranch to the subdivisions along SH 130, is slab-on-grade built since 2000. That clay swells in a wet spring and shrinks in a drought, and the post-tensioned slabs on top of it move with the plumbing inside them.
The town's mascot is a hippo, a story that dates to a circus train in 1915, and concrete hippos stand outside businesses all over downtown.
This site connects Hutto homeowners with an independent local water damage provider by phone. Nothing gets scoped until the provider has read the walls with a meter.
A slab that moved and cracked a supply line leaves water under the floor that water extraction pulls once the plumber is done. A washer in a hall closet that drained into the bedroom carpet is washing machine overflow cleanup. A house that took street runoff through the garage after a hard storm over the clay is flood cleanup.
Rebuild permits inside the city come from Hutto's development services office, and the county handles the farms east of SH 130. Hutto ISD has opened campus after campus since 2000 to keep up with the slab subdivisions, and its name tells you everything about how seriously the town takes its hippo.

Standing water pumped off a slab, a pier-and-beam floor, or a garage, then the first meter readings to see which walls it reached.
Cleanup after an attic or exterior-wall line split in a hard freeze, then drying of the ceilings, walls, and floors the thaw soaked.
Water pumped from under an Old Town pier-and-beam house, then joists and subfloor metered and dried from below.
Cupped long-leaf pine or engineered wood dried in place with mats and readings before anyone decides to tear it out.
Contaminated water and the flooring, drywall, and contents it touched removed under containment after a drain or main line backed up.
A failed hose or a clogged standpipe drained onto the laundry room floor and into the hall. The water is pulled and the walls metered.
Mud, debris, and contaminated water cleared after the San Gabriel or a creek came up, then wet materials removed and the house dried.
Drywall, trim, flooring, and paint put back after drying, with historic-district rules and city permits handled before the work starts.
