If you are in S LA and you have expansive clay under your house it can be a disaster if the pad is not prepared properly.
Careful of clay with a high shrink/swell potential. It'll frick your life if you're not careful and knowledgeable about proper slab site prep.

Also, if you are any close to a flood zone, you have to build up the pad. Check with the local police jury's office. Once the pad is built, you will have to do a slab elevation survey. It is just more to building up dirt these days.
