Frequently asked questions
The house is only a few years old and the lot was graded to drain. Why is water at the slab?
The fill has started to settle. These tracts were pasture cut and packed to make level lots, and compacted sand still consolidates after the slab is poured. Where the fill was deepest, often the foundation trench, the surface drops and the fall that left the wall in 2017 now points at it. An August storm then delivers the roof and the yard to the one place the grade was meant to protect. A level and a hose will show it.
There are no gutters. On a new house, is that a problem in August?
It is the cheapest problem to have. A seven-inch month on a slab with no gutter puts the whole roof in a drip line a foot from the wall, on fill that is already shedding rather than soaking. The house is new; the detailing is the old Florida habit of skipping gutters because 'it drains.' On compacted pasture it does not. Gutters discharging well past the slab are doing work the pond at the end of the street cannot do for the wall.
The tract pond is up. Does that mean the next storm comes into the yard?
Once the pond is at design level, yes, the next inch has less room. These ponds are the outlet for whole tracts of compacted lots, and an August afternoon storm can fill one in an hour. Houses on the low side then take the extra as sheet flow across the lawn. The pond working is not the same as the pond having spare capacity. Watch the water line on the bank, not only whether the street drains.
