Leander was platted in 1882 on Austin and Northwestern Railroad land and named for a railroad official, Leander "Catfish" Brown, though the settlement at Tumlinson Fort nearby goes back to 1836. It stayed a small ranching town on the edge of the Hill Country for a century. Between 2018 and 2019 no city in the United States grew at a higher rate, and the 2025 estimate of about 91,000 people is more than half again the 2020 census count of 59,202. Crystal Falls, Travisso, and Bryson are the big master-planned pieces of that growth, and the Capital MetroRail Red Line ends at Leander Station.
At about 1,017 feet, Leander is the highest of the Williamson County cities, on limestone above the South San Gabriel River. Slabs here sit on rock rather than clay, so they move less, but the houses are newer, larger, and mostly two stories with the plumbing and the air handler in the attic.
This site routes Leander homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider walks the house before writing anything down.
An attic line that split during the February 2021 freeze in a Crystal Falls or Mason Hills house dropped water through the upstairs ceiling first, and burst pipe water damage work starts in the attic. A shower pan over the living room that failed after fifteen years is a ceiling water damage repair call. Hail off the Hill Country cracks shingles every spring, and roof leak water damage work dries what the next rain sends through.
Permits for plumbing, drywall, and electrical repairs inside the city go through the City of Leander, which also runs the water utility and can close a meter at the curb. The South San Gabriel River and its low-water crossings west of town flood fast in a Hill Country storm, and the neighborhoods that back onto it should treat creek water as contaminated.
