San Marcos is located along the Balcones Escarpment, where the limestone terrain of the Texas Hill Country transitions into areas with clay-rich soils. These varying ground conditions, combined with seasonal rainfall, drought, and drainage concerns, can contribute to foundation movement.
Clay soils may expand when wet and shrink during dry periods, potentially creating uneven support beneath a foundation. Properties built on sloped terrain or varying soil layers may also experience settlement.
At X-treme Steel Foundation Repair, we understand that every property is different. Our team evaluates visible foundation concerns and helps homeowners determine the appropriate next steps.
