Frequently asked questions
The swales are full and the slab edge is wet. Is the roof leaking?
Usually not. On these flats a June cell fills the swales, and when Shingle Creek cannot take another inch the water has nowhere to go but onto the lot. A 1989 slab sits only a few inches above that pond. The stain at the stucco base is standing water, not a roof. Look at the swale grade before you open the ceiling.
June is one month. Why is the house still damp in August?
Because the wet season does not reset. Once the flatwoods fill is saturated it stays that way until the fall dry-down, so each later storm adds to a table that never dropped. A slab that took water in June is sitting on wet fill in August even on a fair day. The calendar has more storms; the ground has not emptied.
Raising the lot with fill helped the neighbor. Would it help here?
Only if the fill has somewhere to drain. On a swale grid, raising one lot pushes the pond onto the next slab, which is how a dry house and a wet house end up on the same block. The chain downstream still has to fall. Fill without an outlet is a dam, not a fix.
