Ithaca's steep terrain means many homes are built on slopes. Over time, gravity and soil movement cause foundations to settle unevenly.
High water tables near Cayuga Lake and clay soils that don't drain well lead to persistent basement moisture and water intrusion.
Expansive clay soils push against basement walls when wet, causing bowing, cracking, and structural damage over time.
