Ottumwa's soil consists primarily of silty-clay loam, which can provide a stable foundation for homes. However, the high levels of rainfall experienced in the area, averaging around 34 inches annually, can create issues like the 'clay bowl' effect around basements. When this occurs, water can pool around the foundation, leading to saturated soil and a risk of water intrusion into basements. If ignored, this can result in standing water and mold growth, which can severely damage your home.
