What makes Austin maintenance different?
- Expansive clay foundations — Austin's Hill Country clay soils swell ~40% during wet season and shrink during drought. Slab edge lift, hairline cracking, and door rub are the #1 foundation findings in Austin inspection data. Consistent foundation watering (drip lines on a timer) reduces movement dramatically.
- New-construction envelope tightness — homes built post-2015 to the IECC tight-envelope code retain humidity. Without active dehumidification, indoor RH frequently exceeds 60% in shoulder seasons, accelerating mold risk.
- Hail exposure — Travis County averages 1.2 hail days/yr (NOAA). Class 4 impact-rated shingles add 3–5 yrs of effective life and most major insurers offer 15–28% premium discounts.
- HVAC sizing — common over-sizing in new builds leads to short-cycling and humidity problems. A Manual J calculation should be part of any replacement quote.
- Code jurisdiction patchwork — work inside city limits triggers City of Austin permitting; ETJ and WCID work uses Williamson/Hays County rules. ProActive maps each property to the correct authority having jurisdiction.
