How Can I Protect My Foundation During Extreme Weather?

In Central Texas, extreme weather conditions like heavy rains and long dry spells can wreak havoc on your foundation. Prolonged dry periods cause shrinkage in clay soils, while heavy rains lead to soil expansion, which can create significant pressure on your foundation. Protecting your foundation during these weather fluctuations is critical.

Some steps include:

  • Watering your foundation during dry spells to maintain consistent soil moisture.
  • Installing proper drainage systems (like gutters) to divert water away from the foundation.
  • Removing large trees whose roots may disrupt the soil beneath your foundation.
