A city level sample here returns urban fill, not a natural series. Widen it to Lancaster County and the USDA survey reads Wymore at about 20 percent of the survey, with Aksarben and Pawnee alongside it. The texture split is 82 percent clay and 9 percent silt. The weighted linear extensibility figure, which is how much the soil changes volume between wet and dry, sits at 6.73 percent, a high shrink swell rating. Based on NOAA 1991 to 2020 climate normals for the weather station southwest of Lincoln, precipitation averages 29.5 inches a year and about 134 days a year have a low of 32 degrees or colder, so the soil beside a wall can be wet, dry or frozen at different times of the year. What is actually happening at your address is something we confirm on site, not something we read off a map.

The largest group of homes here by build period, 22 of them, went up before 1940; the median build year is 1972. The 47 homes finished before 1980 are the ones where drainage was rarely engineered and backfill was rarely compacted. 59 percent of owner occupied homes here carry a mortgage, which is usually why a lender or an appraiser is the first to ask about a crack. Every inspection ends with a Customized Repair Estimate that describes what we found at that house.
