Where is the water

Boy do we need water in Houston. and your house needs it too.! Read the attached article to get some inside on how to keep your foundation in good shape ! As a Real Estate Agent in Houston, I can tell you ... A cracked slab is hard to sell !!
Some homes in the southern part of Houston (Bellaire, West University) have what we call a gumbo soil .. real heavy and dense. When wet it weighs a ton ! when dry it is like a stone. In the Northwest area (Cypress, Tomball, Champions), where I am at, the soil has a bit more sand in it. So we need to water a bit more often because the drainage is quicker.
No matter the type, you need consistent moisture under your slab to keep from having slab problems .
Read this article for a simple fix!
