Frequently asked questions
The canal did not overtop the seawall. Why is the slab damp in August?
The seawall holds the boat, not the water table. Limestone and fill under the lot stay in contact with the canal, and a high August tide raises that table into the slab without a drop coming over the wall. Overtopping is the obvious event; the quieter one is the table.
We are on the water and it still will not drain. Why?
These canals are dead ends. With no current there is nowhere for a king tide and an August cell to go, so being on the water is not the same as having an outlet. Frontage does not imply drainage here.
Ten inches in August. Does the rest of the year still matter?
It sets the table. Summer humidity and king tides keep the canals high before the peak month arrives, so August's 10.43 inches lands on a grid that is already full. A dry-season leak still hides under a slab, but the volume problem is the wet season on a sealed lot.
