Causes & Signs of Foundation Damage in the Southeast US

The unique soil compositions found in regions of Texas and Louisiana, namely expansive clay and sandy loam soils, are often a major cause of foundation damage. Larger buildings are not immune to these issues and in fact can suffer more significant damage due to their size.

Common Causes of Texas Foundation Damage

Expansive Clay Soil

Known by many names, this clay-rich soil that runs throughout certain regions of both Texas and Louisiana expands and contracts based on moisture levels. This constant expand-contract cycle puts pressure on concrete foundation walls, causing movement that can lead to cracks, water intrusion, and structural instability.

Sandy Loam Soil

Though more stable than expansive clay soil, the loose structure of sandy loam soils makes them particularly susceptible to erosion that can lead to foundation instability over time. This issue is easily exacerbated by heavy rainfall and improper drainage around the foundation and can lead to settling or sinking of the building foundation.

Poor Drainage

Inadequate drainage systems around homes and commercial buildings can cause water pooling around the foundation, which in turn can lead to soil erosion and significant foundation issues.

Initial Workmanship

Poor initial construction quality can lead to long-term foundation problems, particularly in large-scale buildings.

Landscaping

Natural landscaping around the property can lead to soil erosion, exposing subsoil. Plus, trees planted too close to buildings can exert pressure on the foundation as their roots grow.

Plumbing Leaks

A leak can lead to soil erosion, creating voids underneath your building’s foundation that cause uneven settling. Over time, this will compromise the structural integrity of the foundation.

Common Signs of Foundation Damage

No matter the size of your structure, the signs of foundation damage are the same and can include:

  • Cracks in walls, floors, or ceilings
  • Sticking doors and windows
  • Warped, uneven, or sagging floors
  • Gaps around windows or doors
  • Bulging or bowing walls
  • Plumbing problems

Recognizing these signs early can help you address potential foundation issues before they become more severe. Since unaddressed foundation problems tend to cause other issues within the structure, postponing repairs will not only cost you more in the long run but it could also result in safety issues. If you notice any of the indicators above, it’s time to consult a professional for an inspection and appropriate repairs.
