The Colony Soil Conditions & Foundation Requirements
Geotechnical Characteristics
Denton County soils with varying characteristics. Areas near Lake Lewisville require special foundation considerations for water table. Typical Denton County clay requires geotechnical analysis. Active zone 5-8 feet depending on location.
Critical for The Colony Developers
Always commission a geotechnical investigation before designing foundations in The Colony. Soil conditions can vary dramatically even within the same development. We coordinate with your geotechnical engineer to ensure foundation systems are properly designed for actual site conditions—not generic assumptions that lead to costly failures.
Permits & Inspections
