Fire & Life Safety Inspections in Round Rock, TX
Round Rock runs its own Fire Marshal separate from Austin, with its own permit portal and inspection scheduling. If you manage property in both cities, that is the single most common source of confusion, and it is worth knowing before a deadline rather than after.
Local authority
City of Round Rock Fire Marshal
Round Rock has its own Fire Marshal office at 203 Commerce Blvd, reachable at 512-218-6628, with permits, inspection scheduling, document upload, and fees handled through the city permit portal.
Because Round Rock is in Williamson County rather than Travis, buildings here answer to a different authority than an identical building fifteen minutes south.

Straight answers
- Who enforces fire code in Round Rock?
- The City of Round Rock Fire Marshal, which operates independently from Austin Fire Department. Permits and inspection scheduling go through the Round Rock permit portal, and the office can be reached at 512-218-6628.
- We manage buildings in both Austin and Round Rock. Does that complicate things?
- It means two separate authorities with separate portals and separate expectations, which is exactly the kind of vendor coordination that eats a property manager's week. We track due dates per building rather than per portfolio, so the jurisdiction difference stays our problem instead of yours.
