The Del Webb community on Georgetown's northwest side welcomed its first residents in 1996 and has grown to more than 8,500 homes, with roughly 10,550 approved at full build-out, wrapped around three golf courses off Williams Drive.
Sun City Texas homes, from the meter to the last fixture
Sun City Texas broke ground in 1995 and its first residents moved in by spring 1996. Today it is Texas' largest 55+ community: over 8,500 predominantly single-story homes (with a small number of duplexes), heading toward roughly 10,550 at build-out under Pulte/Del Webb.
That history writes the plumbing story. The original 1996 to early-2000s neighborhoods are pushing 25 to 30 years old, meaning original supply valves, hose bibs, and any not-yet-replaced water heaters are past their design life. Homes here are single-story on slabs, so slab-embedded lines and attic-free heater locations shape how repairs go. And because residents plan to stay in these homes, smart upgrades look different: comfort-height toilets, lever-handle fixtures, scald-protection valves, and accessible shower conversions are some of the most valuable work we do in Sun City.
What we fix most in Sun City Texas
Original equipment from the 1990s phases
A heater, valve, or hose bib installed when the home was built in the late 1990s has beaten the odds already. We help you replace on your schedule, before a failure picks the date for you.
Aging-in-place fixture upgrades
Comfort-height toilets, lever handles, anti-scald valves, hand-held shower conversions, and grab-bar-ready installs make daily life easier and safer. We install them cleanly, to code, with flat-rate pricing.
Slab-embedded plumbing
Single-story slab homes mean supply and drain lines live under concrete. Electronic leak detection finds problems precisely, so repairs are surgical instead of exploratory.
Hard water on long-serving fixtures
Georgetown-area water is hard, and decades of scale shorten equipment life. We test hardness free and size softeners honestly, no oversized systems, no scare tactics.

Sun City Texas homeowner questions
Do you work in Sun City Texas, and is there a trip charge?
Yes, Sun City is squarely in our Georgetown service area, and there is never a dispatch fee. You get a flat-rate written quote before any work starts, and our plumbers are background-checked.
My home was built in the late 1990s. What should I be watching?
The original water heater (if never replaced), the pressure reducing valve, angle stops under sinks, and outdoor hose bibs. All are past design life at 25+ years. A one-visit inspection tells you what is actually fine and what is living on borrowed time.
Can you install comfort-height toilets and accessible fixtures?
Yes, it is some of our most common Sun City work: comfort-height toilets, lever-handle faucets, hand-held shower conversions, and anti-scald valves, installed to code with flat-rate pricing.
Are there rebates for water-saving upgrades in Georgetown?
Yes. For FY2026, Georgetown residential water customers can qualify for up to $5,000 combined in city conservation rebates (verified July 2026, georgetowntexas.gov). Most require pre-approval BEFORE work begins, so mention it when you book and we will point you at the right program page.
How do I know if I have a slab leak?
Warm floor spots, water sounds with everything off, a spinning meter, or a bill jump. Sun City's single-story slab construction makes electronic leak detection the right first move; it pinpoints the leak before anyone opens concrete.
