How Old Is the Framing Under Concord Homes?
Based on U.S. Census Bureau survey data, the median Concord home was built in 1996, and about 30 percent of all 41,988 housing units counted, apartments and attached homes included, were built before 1980. More of them went up in the 2000s than in any other decade, 9,547 homes.
Based on NOAA 1991 to 2020 climate normals for Charlotte Douglas Airport, about 22 miles away, the average July dew point near Concord is about 68 degrees. Dew point is the temperature at which water condenses out of the air, so in a vented crawl space, July air can leave water on the posts, beams and joists that are cooler than about 68 degrees.
Under a home built in 1996, the original posts, beams and joists have carried the floor for about 30 years.

The ground in Concord
How Does Concord Soil Affect Crawl Spaces?
The USDA sample inside Concord is mostly Iredell soil, a brown clay. In a USDA sample of five points inside Concord, three are Iredell, one is Mecklenburg and one is Cecil. Countywide, the most common soil in Cabarrus County is Enon, on more than a tenth of the land, with Cecil, Badin and Mecklenburg behind it. The USDA rates the sample inside Concord very high for swelling and shrinking, which means it swells a lot when it gets wet and shrinks a lot as it dries.
Iredell is a soil that formed in place as darker rock rich in iron and magnesium beneath it weathered, usually found on Piedmont uplands. Its top layer is sandy loam, and under that is brown clay. Loam is soil with a mix of sand, silt and clay. It drains a little slowly, so it can stay wet for short periods in a wet season.
Mecklenburg is a deep soil that formed in place as darker rock rich in iron and magnesium beneath it weathered, usually found on ridges and hillsides. Its top layer is loam, and under that is yellowish red clay. It drains well.
What It Means for Your Home
- What to watchClay holds water after long rains and gives it back slowly, so the ground under a crawl space can stay damp and add moisture to the air under the house. In wet months the clay can also swell against the footings, then shrink back in dry ones, and the floor above can move with it.
- Signs you might noticeLook for sagging floors, deteriorating insulation, and higher energy bills.
- How we address itWhere water reaches the floor, an interior crawl space drainage system that carries it to a sump pump is part of the repair plan. For damp air, our usual recommendation is crawl space encapsulation with a dehumidifier, and where the wood has weakened, crawl space structural repair.
Soil survey: USDA NRCS Soil Data Access (SSURGO), sdmdataaccess.nrcs.usda.gov. Inside Concord, the survey maps Iredell, Mecklenburg and Cecil series. USDA rates the soil very high for swelling and shrinking (weighted linear extensibility 11.5 percent). Across Cabarrus County, it maps Enon, Cecil, Badin and Mecklenburg series. Series descriptions: USDA NRCS Official Series Descriptions for Iredell and Mecklenburg.
Our approach
How Do We Approach Crawl Space Repair in Concord?
Most crawl space problems in Concord come down to moisture and what it does to the wood and air above it.
Our crawl space work covers:
- Crawl space waterproofing and interior drainage to manage water
- Sump pumps to remove it
- Dehumidifiers to control humidity
- Insulation and sealed doors
- Structural and pier and beam repair for sagging floors and failing supports

What Are the Signs You May Need Crawl Space Repair in Concord?

- Sagging FloorsA sagging floor has dropped below the framing around it, leaving a visible dip or a soft, bouncy feel underfoot.
- Groundwater SeepageGroundwater seepage is water entering the crawl space from the ground itself.
- Deteriorating InsulationDeteriorating insulation is crawl space insulation that has lost its ability to slow heat transfer, almost always because it has taken on moisture.
