Stone Wall Installation in Georgetown, TX

Georgetown’s clay soil doesn’t sit still, and a stone wall that isn’t built for that movement will crack, lean, or separate within a few seasons. Hicks Fencing has been installing stone walls in Georgetown and the surrounding Central Texas area for 15 years, with in-house masons on staff instead of subcontracted labor. That means the same team that pours the footing also sets the stone, so drainage, soil movement, and long-term stability get planned in from the first shovel, not patched after the fact. If you want a stone wall installation in Georgetown, TX built to actually hold up, this page walks through how we do it.

Is Your Yard Fighting the Same Ground Every Homeowner in Georgetown Deals With?

Have you noticed hairline cracks starting in a retaining wall, or a stone border that’s begun to lean after a wet spring followed by a dry summer? That’s not bad luck. It’s what Georgetown’s clay soil does to stonework that wasn’t built to move with it. Around the San Gabriel River and through neighborhoods near Lake Georgetown, we see the same pattern year after year: a wall goes in looking sharp, then the ground swells and shrinks through our seasonal swings and the stone starts to shift, separate, or bow outward at the base.

 

We’ve spent 15 years building in Georgetown and the surrounding Central Texas communities, and we don’t treat a stone wall as a one-and-done install. Our team includes in-house masons, not subcontractors brought in for the day, so the same people who dig the footing and plan for drainage are the ones setting every stone above it. That matters more here than it does in places with stable soil, because a wall that isn’t engineered for clay movement is a wall you’ll be calling someone about again in a year or two.

 

If you’re the kind of homeowner who’d rather pay once for something built right than twice for something built fast, that’s exactly who we build for. A stone wall installation in Georgetown, TX should be something you stop thinking about once it’s finished, not something you keep watching.

Our Process

What Goes Into a Stone Wall Installation?

A stone wall installation starts below the ground, not above it. Before any stone goes down, we dig and pour a footing sized for Georgetown’s clay soil, since a shallow or undersized base is the most common reason walls here crack or lean within a couple of years. We build in drainage behind the wall so water doesn’t pool against the stone and accelerate soil movement, then set each course by hand for a tight, permanent fit rather than stacking for speed. Because our masons are in-house, the same crew that handles the footing and drainage also sets the stone, so nothing gets lost between subcontractors. We choose materials with an eye on how the wall performs years down the line, not just how it looks on install day, and we walk every job with straight pricing up front so there’s no upsell waiting once the crew arrives.

01

Built by In-House Masons, Not Subcontractors

Most fencing companies subcontract out masonry work. Ours doesn’t. The same crew that digs your footing and plans your drainage is the crew setting the stone, which means fewer handoffs, fewer scheduling gaps, and one team accountable for the whole wall.

02

Drainage and Soil Movement Planned In, Not Patched Later

Most stone wall failures in Central Texas come down to water and clay, not bad stonework. We grade behind the wall and add drainage so pressure doesn’t build up during heavy rain, and we set footings deep enough to handle the seasonal expansion and contraction that catches a lot of do-it-yourself and low-bid walls off guard.

03

An Honest, No-Pressure Estimate

Every stone wall installation starts with a free on-site estimate and straight pricing. Tracy Hicks and the team walk the property, explain what the job actually needs, and don’t tack on upsells you didn’t ask for.

What Other Masonry and Stone Services Does Hicks Fencing Offer?

Masonry Contractor

Beyond stone walls, we work as a full masonry contractor for Georgetown homeowners, handling gate surrounds, stone accents, and other masonry work that ties into a fence or property line. This is a rare in-house offering for a fencing company; most fence installers subcontract this work out, which adds time and another point of miscommunication. Because Tracy Hicks and our crew handle both the fencing and the masonry side, a project that needs both gets planned as one job instead of two separate ones with two separate schedules. If you’re already working with us as your fence contractor in Georgetown, adding masonry work doesn’t mean bringing in a second company.

Stone Column Installation

Stone columns are a common pairing with a stone wall, usually at a driveway entrance, gate opening, or corner of a property line. We build them with the same footing and drainage approach as our walls, since a column that isn’t set deep enough will shift independently of the wall next to it, creating a visible gap or lean over time. Our masons size each stone column installation to match the scale of the wall or gate it’s paired with, so the finished look reads as one structure rather than mismatched pieces. This is typically priced and estimated alongside a stone wall installation, and it’s covered in the same free on-site estimate.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About Stone Wall Installation in Georgetown, TX

How long does a stone wall installation in Georgetown usually take?

It depends on the length and height of the wall, but most residential stone walls take a few days to a couple of weeks once footing and drainage work is factored in.

Will my stone wall crack because of the clay soil out here?

Not if it’s built for it. We size the footing and add drainage specifically to handle Georgetown’s clay, which is the step most cracked walls skipped.

Can Hicks Fencing do a stone wall and a matching gate or column at the same time?

Yes, since our masons handle walls, columns, and gate surrounds together, it can all be estimated and built as one job.
