Manor was founded in 1872 on the Houston and Texas Central line and named for James Manor, who had settled on Gilleland Creek decades earlier. It stayed a farm town of about 1,000 people on US 290 east of Austin for most of a century, long enough to play a small town in What's Eating Gilbert Grape. Between 2010 and 2020 the population went from 5,037 to 13,652, and the 2025 estimate is above 23,000. ShadowGlen, Presidential Glen, and the other subdivisions along 290 are the reason.
Manor sits at 531 feet on the flattest, deepest Blackland clay in the region, in Travis County about 18 miles southeast of Round Rock. The slabs here move more than anywhere else we cover, and Gilleland Creek and Wilbarger Creek cross the town and back up across the low streets after a storm.
This site routes Manor homeowners to an independent local water damage provider by phone. The provider walks the house before anything is decided.
A cracked tile and a warm spot that appeared the same week in a ShadowGlen or Presidential Glen house is a leak detection call before it is a drying job. A slab that has been wet for a month underneath the laminate is structural drying work, and it takes dehumidifiers, not fans. When Gilleland Creek backs up into a garage, flash flood cleanup treats the water as contaminated.
Repairs inside the city go through the City of Manor, which issues permits and runs the city water utility. Most of the subdivisions outside the limits get water from a rural corporation instead, and the crew will want to know which one if the curb valve will not turn.
Call (512) 562-9101 and tell us what you found. We route the call to a local water damage provider serving Manor.
