- Repairs foundations
- Commercial work
Anyone looking for foundation repair in Lubbock County is working with mixed ground. A sample of 49 points across an area about 21 miles wide, around the centre of Lubbock County, put 1 point on water. Of the other 48, 15 sat on soil rated high or very high for shrink-swell, and 1 of those was rated very high. The commonest soil series were Olton, Acuff and Amarillo, at 11 points each.
Soil with a high shrink-swell rating grows when rain soaks it and contracts in a dry spell, and that movement is what pushes slabs and piers up and lets them settle back. The sample describes the area around the centre of the county only. It says nothing about a particular street, so the soil under one house is something an inspection of that house has to settle. The flood sample points the same way: 3 of the 48 land points sat inside the 1% annual chance floodplain. A homeowner can look up their own zone on FEMA's flood map, and water that stands beside a foundation keeps the clay under it wet.
The median home in Lubbock County was built in 1984. Of the homes here, 16.8% were built before 1960 and 42.0% in 1990 or later. Older Texas homes are more often pier and beam and newer ones more often slab, but that is a general pattern. The census does not record how a house is built.
