Frequently asked questions
This is not Duluth, Minnesota. Does that change the moisture story?
Yes. The Minnesota city sits on Lake Superior clay and ore-dock fill. This is a Gwinnett suburb on the Chattahoochee, 1994 stock, July Piedmont thunderstorms. Copying a Superior playbook about seiches and cold-clay would miss the bluff cut and the red clay.
The Chattahoochee stayed in its banks. Why is the uphill wall wet in July?
The wall is holding the bluff cut, not the river. July rain on clay over granite moves downslope against the buried face. A dry river and a wet basement is a normal pair on these lots. Drainage at the cut is the job.
The rain sheeted straight off the yard. Why did the house take it anyway?
Because it never sank in. On granite a July cloudburst runs across the surface and arrives at the footing instead of soaking away, so a yard that shed the storm delivers it to the foundation. The runoff is the mechanism, not a failure to absorb.
