Why foundations move in York
The soil, and what it does
The USDA soil survey inside York comes back Hastings at about 80 percent of the survey, with Hord alongside it. Broken down by texture it is 79 percent clay and 20 percent silt. Weighted linear extensibility runs 6.94 percent, meaning the soil changes volume enough between wet and dry to rate high for shrink swell.
The seasonal cycle here
Ground here freezes to 36 to 42 inches and cycles through freeze and thaw 60 to 80 times a year. The ground takes on 35 to 40 inches a year of water and gives it back, which is the cycle a wall has to survive.
What these homes were built like
The typical house dates to 1969, and the single biggest block of the stock, 1,025 homes, went up before 1940. The 2,718 homes finished before 1980 are the ones where drainage was rarely engineered and backfill was rarely compacted. 20 percent of the housing here, 662 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, 58 percent carry a mortgage.
