A city level sample here returns urban fill, not a natural series. Widen it to Sarpy County and the USDA survey reads Contrary at about 24 percent of the survey, with Marshall and Judson alongside it. Broken down by texture it is 56 percent clay, 22 percent silt and 6 percent sand. Weighted linear extensibility runs 4.16 percent, meaning the soil changes volume enough between wet and dry to rate moderate for shrink swell. Frost in this part of the state reaches 36 to 42 inches, and the ground cycles through freeze and thaw 60 to 80 times a year, so the same soil is loading and unloading a wall all year. What is actually happening at your address is something we confirm on site, not something we read off a map.

Most of what we walk into here was built in the 1970s, 5,203 homes, around a median build year of 1979. 13,215 of those homes predate 1980, which is where we most often find footing drains that were never installed and backfill that was never compacted. 25 percent of the housing here, 6,113 units, sits in buildings of five or more, so a fair share of local work is on shared structures rather than single family homes. Of the owner occupied homes, 67 percent carry a mortgage. Every inspection ends with a Customized Repair Estimate that describes what we found at that house.
