Why foundations move in Holdrege
What is under the ground here
Sampled inside the Holdrege city limits, the USDA survey reads Holdrege across about 100 percent of the survey. By texture that survey runs 15 percent clay, 68 percent silt and 10 percent sand. Linear extensibility, the measure of how much a soil swells when it takes on water and shrinks when it dries, is weighted at 4.28 percent here, which USDA reads as moderate shrink swell potential.
The weather these foundations live with
Frost reaches 36 to 42 inches in this part of the state, and the ground goes through 60 to 80 freeze thaw cycles in a normal year. Rainfall of 35 to 40 inches a year is enough to load a wall in a wet spring and pull away from it in a dry summer.
The housing stock
The years before 1940 put up more homes than any other decade, 592 of them, and the median year built is 1962. The 1,937 homes finished before 1980 are the ones where drainage was rarely engineered and backfill was rarely compacted. Mortgages sit on 49 percent of the owner occupied homes in Holdrege.

It’s hard to find a company that cares as much as they do these days. They are professional AND nice!
Had my main floor joist which was sagging repaired and re-supported by Epp. I was extremely pleased with the work done. The foreman, Alex, whom completed all the work was skilled, professional, and very friendly. I would recommend Epp and Alex to my friends and family.
Had a great experience with Epp Concrete! Process was quick and easy. My foreman, Hunter communicated effectively and made sure the project was completed within a timely manner.
