How the local clay affects Pilot Butte foundations
The ground here behaves like Regina gumbo: it absorbs spring snowmelt and swells, then dries and shrinks through summer, and freezes toward the roughly 6 ft frost line in winter. Older homes that predate modern drainage standards are especially prone to settlement and bowing, while newer homes mostly show early cracks as backfill and clay settle. In both cases the fix has to reach below the moving clay to hold.
