Your foundation relies heavily on the soil in your yard for stability, and in Dallas, the predominant clay-based soil creates unique challenges. With an average annual rainfall of approximately 37 inches, the clay can swell when saturated, pushing your foundation out of alignment. As the soil dries, it shrinks and cracks, leading to further shifting of your foundation. Homeowners should be vigilant for signs of foundation issues such as floor and wall gaps, settling, and drywall cracks. FSS has tailored solutions designed to permanently protect against these types of damage, employing pier systems and support jacks to ensure your foundation remains secure.
Foundation repair requires a deep understanding of the local soil and environmental factors that can impact a home's foundation. The expansive clay soils in Dallas are particularly known for their significant expansion and contraction with moisture changes, which can result in serious foundation problems. It is vital to engage professionals with the requisite expertise in addressing these soil-related issues. At FSS, we are committed to utilizing our specialized knowledge to help Dallas homeowners maintain the integrity of their foundations.
