What kind of homes and basements does Casper have?
Downtown has early 20th-century homes with basements; Westridge and Paradise Valley have postwar and newer homes on basements and crawl spaces.
What causes basement and foundation problems in Casper?
Bentonite heave
Swelling soils crack slabs and walls.
Snow drift meltwater
Wind piles snow against walls, and it melts slowly into the soil.
Mountain runoff
Homes below Casper Mountain take runoff after storms.
Frozen sump lines
Long cold winters freeze discharge lines.
Wind-blown snow and window wells
Casper's strong winds fill window wells with snow that melts into basements. Covers on window wells and drains connected to the footing drain stop most of these leaks. Clearing drifted snow from wells and foundation edges after each storm, before it melts, prevents the slow spring seepage that saturates the bentonite soils around many Casper homes.
