Frequently asked questions
It rained on the mountain and barely on us. Why is the crawlspace wet?
Because the mountain sheds onto you. Kennesaw granite gives up March rain almost immediately, and residual clay carries it downhill into crawlspaces on the cut below. What fell at your address is not the total that matters.
The mountain is rock. Why is the yard clay?
Because the rock weathers in place. Residual clay over granite looks like dirt and behaves like a pan. March rain sheets on it, and a crawlspace on the downhill side of a cut is the first opening. Amending the topsoil does not change the pan underneath.
A 1987 slab cracked after a wet March. Is that the storm or the clay?
Both. Piedmont clay moves when it wets, and March is when it wets. The crack is the slab reporting that movement, and the same opening is then a path for the next cell. Closing the crack without draining the edge just waits for April.
