Foundations on West Tennessee soil, Dyersburg.

West Tennessee sits on deep loess, a windblown silt, and clay layers that hold water and move. The land is flat, so water can pool near the house, and slabs and footings settle unevenly. Drainage, foam lifting and piers carried down to firm soil are common answers.

Dyersburg is about 146 miles from downtown Nashville, in Dyer County.

1

Soft, deep soil

Footings can sink unevenly, and piers carry the load to firmer layers.

2

Water that pools

Flat lots hold water against the foundation unless it is graded and drained.

3

Sinking slabs

Foam lifting and slab piers restore floors and driveways quickly.

Good questions

Dyersburg homeowners ask

Why is my slab sinking?

Soft or washed-out soil under the slab, poor drainage and tree roots are the usual causes. Lifting fixes the surface, and the cause is corrected so it does not happen again.
