Foundation Settlement and Red Clay Soil in Gwinnett
Gwinnett homes sit on clay-heavy soil that expands during wet seasons and contracts during dry spells. That movement shows up as stair-step brick cracks, drywall cracks above doors, sticking windows, and sloping floors. A good foundation inspection looks beyond the crack itself: roof runoff, grading, downspouts, crawlspace humidity, and drainage patterns all affect whether the repair lasts.
