Frequently asked questions
Everyone here talks about the clay. What makes it different?
The scale of its volume change. It is a highly expansive marine clay that swells and shrinks with enough force to lift and drop foundations and to break rigid buried pipe. Most clay does this to a degree; this one does it enough to damage structures as a matter of course.
Could the soil be why a line under the slab failed?
It is a recognised sequence here. Ground that moves seasonally stresses rigid buried pipe until a joint gives, the escaping water then saturates the clay locally, and the clay swells and moves the slab further. The soil and the plumbing failure end up driving one another.
Is there anything visible outside that warns of trouble inside?
Yes, because the gap that opens between the ground and the foundation during a dry spell is visible outside long before anything shows indoors. Keeping moisture around the perimeter even, rather than reacting once water is inside, is the more useful habit on this soil.
