Why foundations move in Dallas
Most of Dallas County rests on Houston Black clay, the dark, high-plasticity gumbo that swells in wet winters and shrinks through summer drought. That seasonal push and pull is the single biggest driver of slab cracking, separating brick, and doors that stick by August.
Older East Dallas neighborhoods lean pier-and-beam and often need releveling or joist work, while postwar and newer construction north of LBJ is almost all slab, a different repair playbook entirely.
