Foundation Repair in Bonham, TX

Bonham stands out for how much of its ground can move. Of 25 points around the centre of Bonham, 22 sat on soil rated high or very high for shrink-swell, and 7 of those were very high. Wilson and Bonham soils each covered 6 points, and Ferris covered 3. Clay at those ratings drinks up rain and swells, then pulls back as it dries. That cycle is what keeps foundation repair in Texas in demand in towns like this.

Three of the 25 land points sit inside the floodplain on FEMA's flood map. Water pooled beside a house keeps the clay under it swollen, so check your own address on FEMA's map instead of trusting a sample around the centre. The median home in Bonham was built in 1976. Houses that old often have pier and beam, though the census does not record it.
