Why foundations move in Papillion
What is under the ground here
Mapped soil inside Papillion is recorded as disturbed urban ground, so the useful reading is the wider one. Across Sarpy County the USDA survey is Contrary at about 24 percent of the survey, with Marshall and Judson alongside it. By texture that survey runs 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.
The seasonal cycle here
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, and about 136 days a year have a low of 32 degrees or colder.
The housing stock
The 1990s put up more homes than any other decade, 2,458 of them, and the median year built is 1989. The 2,728 homes finished before 1980 are the ones where drainage was rarely engineered and backfill was rarely compacted. 21 percent of the housing here, 1,925 units, sits in buildings of five or more, so a fair share of local work is on shared structures rather than single family homes. Mortgages sit on 67 percent of the owner occupied homes in Papillion.

"If a wall's clean concrete and bowed under two inches, carbon fiber wins on cost and floor space. If the wall's painted, cracked, or already past two inches of deflection, you put steel against it. The wall tells you which one. Not the salesman."

Very professional. They answered all our questions and worked around our schedules. Our foundation needed 10 supports and Epp Foundation did a great job on our repair.
