Grading Importance For Our Littleton Home Foundations
Here in Littleton, our expansive soils are highly reactive in the presence of water. To lessen the impact of water's affect on our soil and our soil's impact on our home foundations, geotechnical engineers in the metro Denver area recommend that at least a 10 percent slope of the grade is maintained within the first five feet out from the foundation to direct surface water away from the foundation.
For more information, contact Peak Structural. We’re located at 600 17th St. Suite 2800 South, Denver, CO 80202. You can contact us at 303 243 3028 or go to www.peakstructural.com
