Why Cathedral's older homes need foundation attention
The original foundations in Cathedral have endured generations of gumbo movement. Older concrete and rubble or block walls are less able to resist the lateral pressure that swelling clay applies, so horizontal cracks and inward bowing show up here more than in newer areas. Mature boulevard and yard trees draw water out of the clay in summer, deepening the shrink that lets foundations settle. Original weeping tile, if any, is often past its service life.
