Why foundations move in Bellevue
What is under the ground here
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, water and the calendar
Based on NOAA 1991 to 2020 climate normals for Omaha Eppley Airfield, about 12 miles away, the low reaches 32 degrees or colder on about 135 days in a normal year. Precipitation there averages 31.9 inches a year, and snowfall averages 27.1 inches.
What these homes were built like
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.

"Most yard drainage calls I take, the homeowner thinks they have a foundation problem. They have a roof problem. Twelve hundred gallons coming off the roof in a one-inch rain, half of it landing within six feet of the wall, and a basement that didn't leak in 1985 leaks every spring now. Two hundred dollars of buried downspout pipe solves it. That's the call I want to make."

What Omaha customers say
My home had some problems with water in our basement and Epp foundation repair was able to come and fix it. Sam and his team was very professional and got the work done fast. He was very kind and managed the work well. Now our basement is dry and we have no problems. If you are in the Lincoln area and have home repair needs I recommend Epp foundation repair.
Really great work! They got in and out in 2 days time and were very easy to work with and all super nice. Very informative and answered all our questions!!
Brenton and Sam were both really great to work with. I felt like everything was well explained & the whole process was quick and seamless.
