Durham’s Soil and Drainage Challenges
Durham’s heavy clay and compacted soils retain water easily, which can lead to swelling and shifting foundations. In some neighborhoods, the natural slope causes runoff to collect near the home’s perimeter. Our custom drainage systems—including French drains and waterproof membranes—protect against both surface and subsurface water pressure.
