Foundation repair in Nash, Texas
Foundation evaluations and repair for Nash, the Bowie County city bordered by Texarkana on the north and east and Wake Village on the south.
Nash began as T. C. Junction, was later called Park, and took the name Nash in 1906. It incorporated in the 1950s and has kept growing as a suburb, reaching 3,814 residents at the 2020 census. Interstate 30 forms its northern edge at Exit 218, and FM 989 (Kings Highway) meets US 82 (New Boston Road) in town.
Growth means newer lots
Much of Nash's housing went up as the town grew into a suburb. On a newer lot, the soil around the foundation was graded and compacted during construction, and the yard may have been shaped more for looks than for drainage. In the first years, a house can show shrinkage cracks that are normal, alongside movement that isn't. Telling the two apart takes floor readings, not guesswork.
What contractors check on Nash homes
- Whether the finished grade still falls away from the house after settling
- Downspouts that empty into flowerbeds against the slab
- Sprinkler zones that soak one side of the foundation
- Trees planted close to the house that are now big enough to matter
Permits and warranties
Nash runs its own permits, separate from Texarkana and Wake Village, so ask your contractor what applies. If your house is still under a builder's structural warranty, read it and document cracks with dated photos before paying for repairs.

My newer Nash house has cracks. Should I worry?
Some shrinkage cracking in new concrete and drywall is normal. Cracks that keep widening, or doors that start sticking, are worth an evaluation. Check your builder's warranty first.
