What Soil Is Tega Cay Built On?
The most common soil in the USDA sample inside Tega Cay is Pacolet, a deep red clay. In a USDA sample of five points inside Tega Cay, two are Pacolet, one is Wynott and one is Hard Labor. The fifth point falls on ground the survey does not name as a natural soil, such as urban land or water. Countywide, the most common soil in York County is Cecil, on more than a quarter of the land, with Wynott, Georgeville and Pacolet behind it. The USDA rates the sample inside Tega Cay moderate for swelling and shrinking, which means it swells noticeably when it gets wet and shrinks as it dries.
Pacolet is a deep soil that formed in place as pale rock such as granite and gneiss beneath it weathered, usually found on Piedmont uplands. Its top layer is sandy loam, and under that is red clay. Loam is soil with a mix of sand, silt and clay. It drains well.
Wynott is a moderately deep soil that formed in place as darker rock rich in iron and magnesium beneath it weathered, usually found on ridges and hillsides. Soft, weathered bedrock lies within a few feet of the surface. Its top layer is sandy loam, and under that is yellowish brown clay. It drains well.
What It Means for Your Home
- What works in your favorPacolet drains well, so the soil beside a foundation usually dries out after a storm.
- FoundationsClay in this ground can push on a foundation in wet months and pull back in dry ones, and over time that can crack walls and let part of a house settle. Look for diagonal cracks and cracked block foundation walls. See foundation repair.
- Crawl spacesEven soil that drains well can stay wet where roof runoff collects, and the ground still adds moisture to the air under a house, which can lead to musty odors, mold and wood rot over time. Look for sagging floors and deteriorating insulation. See crawl space repair and crawl space encapsulation.
- Floor framingWhen the ground under the piers shifts, the beams and joists above can move out of level, and damp air can soften the wood. Look for broken or cracked joists, and sagging floor joists. See framing repair.
- ConcreteClay that swells and shrinks can lift and drop driveways, walks and patios unevenly. Look for a cracked driveway and raised slab edges you can trip on. See concrete leveling.
Soil survey: USDA NRCS Soil Data Access (SSURGO), sdmdataaccess.nrcs.usda.gov. Inside Tega Cay, the survey maps Pacolet, Wynott and Hard Labor series.
