Autauga County Soil Conditions

The clay shrinks during drought, causing foundation settlement, and swells after rain, causing
heaving and hydrostatic pressure. Areas near the Alabama River may have sandy alluvial soils
that are more stable, but these are limited. Montgomery Foundation Repair Co has extensive
