Foundations near the Mississippi, Lakeland.

The Memphis area sits on thick silt and clay near the Mississippi River, with a high water table, humid summers and big trees that pull moisture from the soil. Crawl spaces stay damp, pier foundations shift and basements and slabs see water pressure. Good drainage and moisture control protect the structure.

Lakeland is about 177 miles from downtown Nashville, in Shelby County.

1

High water table

Water sits close to the surface and pushes on walls and floors.

2

Damp crawl spaces

Humid air and wet soil feed mold and rot without sealing and drying.

3

Thirsty trees

Large trees dry the clay and let one side of a house settle.
