Prepare your foundation for the hot summers by setting up your soaker hose early. When your soil doesn't receive the moisture it needs, it contracts. When the soil gets too much water, it expands. This constant contraction and expansion of the soil beneath our foundation slab can lead to foundation instability. One way to prevent this from happening is to install a watering system. Du-West has a watering system effective in keeping moisture around a slab. For more information, visit www.duwestfoundation.com
