Why Collbran homes need waterproofing
Mesa County is known for highly expansive Mancos shale clay. It swells dramatically under irrigation and spring moisture, then shrinks hard through the dry summer, lifting and dropping foundations year after year. Decades of flood irrigation across the Grand Valley make the cycle worse.
Plateau Valley homes in Collbran face high groundwater from irrigation and Plateau Creek runoff.
