Papillion housing
How old is the framing under Papillion homes?
The median Papillion home was built in 1989, based on U.S. Census Bureau survey data. The 1990s added the most homes, 2,458 of them. About 29 percent of the 9,400 homes counted were built before 1980.
Original posts, beams and joists are as old as the house, so under a home built in 1989 they have carried the floor for about 37 years. The inspection checks whether any post has settled and whether water has reached the wood.
Based on USDA soil survey data, Sarpy County soil is about 56 percent clay and rated moderate for shrink swell. A post on a small footing can settle into damp clay, and the beam above it can sag with it.
Based on NOAA 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the weather station northeast of Gretna, about 6 miles away, precipitation averages 33.2 inches a year. Based on the same NOAA normals for Bellevue Offutt Air Force Base, about 8 miles away, the average July dew point is 67 degrees. In a vented crawl space, posts, beams and joists that are cooler than 67 degrees can collect condensation in summer.

"Pier-and-beam is the easiest foundation in the world to fix correctly and the easiest one to fix wrong. The whole house is sitting on maybe twelve points. Find which two of those points are failing, replace those two with helical piers, and the house is done. Tearing out all twelve is what a contractor does when he doesn't know which two are bad. We know which two."
