Frequently asked questions

Ten inches a year. How is moisture even a call here?

Because it arrives all at once, and because irrigation never stops. A February burst on a wash or a granite bench is a shallow flood. Between storms, watering keeps one edge of the slab wet while the other bakes. Either path wets a plate that was detailed for a desert year, not for a pond or a gradient.

The wash is a mile away. Is the Santa Ana still involved?

As a flash-flood path for lots near it, yes. For the benches, no — that water is local sheet flow on decomposed granite. Two February stains can have nothing to do with each other. Distance to the wash is a poor test of which mechanism you have.

We cut back the watering. Could that still have moved the slab?

The change can. This soil wants a steady moisture, not a wet side and a dry side. Cutting irrigation on one elevation while the other stays watered is how a crack opens. Consistency around the perimeter matters more than the gallons.
