Why foundations move here: Yazoo clay
Much of the Jackson metro, including Byram and Clinton, sits on expansive clay, often called Yazoo clay. It swells when it's wet and shrinks when it dries, and that seasonal movement pushes and drops foundations unevenly.
That's why you'll see stair-step cracks in brick, gaps over doors, and sloping floors after a dry summer or a very wet winter. Good drainage and consistent moisture around the house matter as much as the repair itself.
