Frequently asked questions
Twelve inches a year. How is a new house wet?
The ditch, not the sky. Treasure Valley laterals are the water budget. A leak, an overflowing headgate, or a neighbor flooding a pasture will wet a 2003 slab in a climate that would never have supplied that water. Reading the December gauge will not find it.
The house is from 2003. Shouldn't the drainage be modern?
The drain still has to go somewhere, and on this floor it often goes into a lateral or a shallow ditch that is already full of irrigation water. A new tile dumping into a full ditch is a wet footing. A 2003 build date did not raise the valley.
Fog in December on a desert valley. Does that matter indoors?
It removes drying. After a front, fog sits on the silt and a shallow basement stays at condensation. Combined with irrigation that never shut off, December is when a year of ditch seepage finally shows as a smell. The rain is small; the lingering is not.
