Why Minturn homes need foundation repair
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.
Minturn's historic homes on narrow Eagle River lots often need underpinning and full foundation replacement.
