The invention discloses a plugging method for a dewatering well in a foundation pit. The plugging method comprises the following steps that S1, the position of the dewatering well is selected, and a steel pipe is inserted to serve as the well wall of the dewatering well; S2, a water stop ring is welded to the neck of the steel pipe, and a connecting ring is welded to the top of the steel pipe; S3, a waterproof coiled material is arranged on the outer wall of the steel pipe and extends from the well bottom to the position below the water stop ring; S4, a water stop copper bar clamp is arranged below the water stop ring and used for clamping the waterproof coiled material; S5, bottom plates are laid on the two sides of the foundation pit and the two sides of the dewatering well, reserved plugging positions are arranged on the bottom plates, and steel pipes are arranged in the reserved plugging positions; S6, water pumps are placed in the steel pipes, water is cooled to the position 50cm below the lowest point of the foundation pit, and after a basement structure is completed, dewatering is stopped; S7, the water pumps are withdrawn, the dewatering well is filled with gravel, and a well lid with holes is additionally sealed on the connecting ring; and S8, grouting is conducted along the holes in the well lid. Underground confined water is plugged while pressure relief is conducted, the plugging quality is ensured, multiple waterproof measures are taken, and leakage of the structural bottom plates is avoided.
