My house is new. Should I worry about cracks?
Hairline cracks are common as concrete cures. Cracks that keep growing, or doors that start sticking, are worth measuring.
Cibolo has grown fast, and most of its newer homes sit on deep clay that moves with the seasons.
Cibolo, in Guadalupe County northeast of San Antonio, has grown from a small town into a city of newer subdivisions, most built on slab-on-grade foundations. The ground is largely deep, expansive clay, and much of it is fairly flat, so drainage depends on grading and gutters.
Cibolo Creek runs along the edge of the city, and low areas near it can stay wet after heavy rain.
