Frequently asked questions
The channels here are engineered. Why does water still pond against the house?
Because the inlets silt. A planned system works only while its intakes stay clear, and once they load with fan sediment a February pulse backs up and stands at the slab edge. The design is sound; the maintenance interval is the variable.
It did not rain on this village. Why is there water against the slab?
The fan collects the hills. A February cell over the San Joaquin Hills sends flow down San Diego Creek and across the villages below. The lot's own weather is not the catchment. Oak Creek and the Spectrum sit on that fan; the village's own rain gauge is not the catchment that filled the channel.
A leak under this slab showed up a long way from the pipe. Why?
It travels on the fan. Water from a slab leak moves under tile along the alluvium rather than surfacing where it started, so the damage appears at a distance from its source. Finding the wet spot does not locate the pipe.
