Why foundations move in Fairview
Ground conditions
The mapped soil in Fairview is Baxter at about 40 percent of the survey, with Lobelville and Mountview alongside it. The texture split is 62 percent clay and 26 percent silt. The weighted linear extensibility figure, which is how much the soil changes volume between wet and dry, sits at 3.28 percent, a moderate shrink swell rating. Against 62 percent clay across Williamson County, the city sample reads 40 percent. Karst features are mapped in this area, so voids and sinkhole risk are part of the inspection.
The seasonal cycle here
Middle Tennessee clay swells in a wet spring and shrinks in a dry summer, and a foundation moves with it. That shrink swell cycle is the seasonal load these footings carry.
The age of the housing
The 1990s put up more homes than any other decade, 883 of them, and the median year built is 1996. The 973 homes finished before 1980 are the ones where original drainage gets the closest look. A mortgage sits on 66 percent of the owner occupied homes here.
