This week Kansas City has experienced multiple days with 100 degree temperatures. Severe weather patterns like these with extreme heat and dry conditions following rainy, cool periods creates volatility in the expansive clay soils under most homes which can cause foundation problems for Kansas City homeowners.
It is important for property owners to pay particular attention to what is happening around their home this time of year. If doors are starting to stick or your floors seem uneven, take a few minutes to take a walk around the full perimeter of your home and basement. Look for signs of new cracks which can indicate your foundation is settling. Early detection and prevention (like seasonal watering) can save you significant dollars in the long run.
