Why Avon homes need waterproofing
Eagle County foundations contend with Eagle River valley cobble, expansive clay on the benches, and gypsum-rich soils west of Wolcott that dissolve and settle when they stay wet. Add deep frost lines and heavy alpine snowmelt and drainage becomes as important as structure.
Avon's valley-floor construction near the Eagle River requires serious water management under and around foundations.
