Why foundations move in Gladeville
Ground conditions
The mapped soil in Gladeville is Bradyville at about 40 percent of the survey, with Talbott and Gladeville alongside it. Broken down by texture it is 51 percent clay and 8 percent silt. Linear extensibility, the measure of how much a soil swells when it takes on water and shrinks when it dries, is weighted at 4.62 percent here, which USDA reads as moderate shrink swell potential. Against 51 percent clay across Wilson County, the city sample reads 60 percent. Karst features are mapped in this area, so voids and sinkhole risk are part of the inspection.
Rain, drought and the calendar
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 typical house dates to 2002, and the single biggest block of the stock, 336 homes, went up in the 2000s. 158 of those homes predate 1980, so drainage and footing condition get a close look at an inspection. A mortgage sits on 74 percent of the owner occupied homes here.
