Houston homes sit on expansive clay soil—so foundation movement is common, but not every crack means you need repairs. In this episode of Coffee with Real Estate, host Susan talks with Brandon Hoge of Structured Houston about what “structural issues” really look like in the real world. Brandon explains the two main types of foundation movement—settlement and upheaval—and why wet/dry cycles can flex a slab over time. You’ll learn the everyday warning signs buyers and sellers should watch for: brick and drywall cracks, sticking doors, tile cracks, and shifting expansion joints.

Brandon also breaks down how pros evaluate a home using an elevation survey, why there’s no single “magic number” that automatically means trouble, and why visible stress often matters more than measurements alone. If you’re navigating a real estate transaction, you’ll appreciate the practical advice on when to call a specialist, how to communicate findings to a buyer, and what makes a foundation warranty meaningful (including why definitions and prorated terms matter).
