The City of Lakeway's "Adopted Building Codes" sheet, issued by Building & Development Services, states: "The City of Lakeway has adopted the following codes:" and lists "International Residential Code (IRC) for One- and Two-Family Dwellings – 2021 Edition," alongside the 2021 International Building Code, the 2021 International Energy Conservation Code and the 2023 National Electrical Code.

8.25% combined (6.25% state + 1.75% City of Lakeway + 0.25% special-purpose district (Lake Travis Lib Dist)), per the Comptroller's local sales tax rate file. Comptroller Publication 94-116, Real Property Repair and Remodeling, states that "Labor to repair, remodel, or restore residential real property is not taxable" and that under a lump-sum contract "you pay tax on all your supplies, materials, equipment, and taxable services when you buy them. You don't charge your customer tax." On a lump-sum residential re-roof the rate therefore falls on the roofer's material purchases, not on the homeowner's contract price.
