New neighborhoods on deep clay

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.

What Cibolo homeowners run into

  • Early settling in newer homes.
  • Seasonal cracks that open in summer.
  • Water pooling between houses and along fences.
  • Corner drop during long droughts.
  • Patio and driveway gaps next to the slab.

  3. The inspection. Elevation readings across the floors, a look at interior and exterior cracks, doors and windows, drainage and grading, and the crawlspace if the home is pier and beam.

Frequently asked questions

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.

If my home is under a builder warranty, what should I do?

Check the warranty terms first, since they often have reporting deadlines. An independent inspection can still help you understand the movement.

Does watering help on clay?

During droughts, keeping soil moisture more even can reduce movement. Follow your local watering rules.
