The courthouse and the blocks around it

The Medina County Courthouse was built in 1892–93, after Hondo won the vote to take the county seat from Castroville. It is built of yellowish limestone quarried from a ranch about six miles north of town, was expanded with two-storey wings around 1940, restored in 1988, and has been a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark since 1984. The 1893 jail, also limestone, stands on its northeast side.

The buildings around it are what we serve: attorneys, title and abstract companies, insurance agencies, and the shops and homes on the surrounding blocks of 16th Street and Avenues K through M.

  • Limestone and brick hold water Masonry walls soak up moisture from leaks and wind-driven rain and dry out slowly. They need to be monitored, not just wiped down.

  • Roof and parapet leaks on older commercial buildings during Hondo's spring hail and heavy rain.

  • Older drain lines in buildings that have been renovated many times over the decades.

  • Sprinkler and HVAC leaks in offices, often discovered on a Monday morning.

Our work near the courthouse

For offices near the courthouse, we extract water, lift files and equipment clear of it, and dry carpet tile, walls and subfloors while keeping as much of the office working as possible. For historic buildings, we dry gradually and monitor masonry readings to avoid damage from drying too fast. Everything is documented for the owner, tenants and insurers.

The courthouse itself is a county building managed by Medina County. This page is for the private homes and businesses in the surrounding blocks.
