What causes basement and foundation problems in Las Vegas?

Collapsible soil settlement

Some soils compact when wetted, causing settlement after leaks or flooding.

Flash floods

Monsoon storms send fast water across streets and lots.

Pool and irrigation leaks

Leaking pools and irrigation saturate soils near foundations.

Caliche drainage

Hard caliche layers stop water from draining down, so it spreads sideways.

Slab leaks

Hot water lines under slabs can leak, wetting soils beneath the foundation. Warm spots on floors, unexplained high water bills or the sound of running water are warning signs.
