Frequently asked questions

The fields around town dry out. Why doesn't the basement?

The fields still have working tile. The house is a hole that those tiles were never asked to drain, and a June cell fills the silt around a 1965 wall faster than a city storm sewer can move it. Looking at the corn is the wrong sample. The basement is the low point in a town that was platted on a tile grid.

We had the window wells cleaned. Why does June still wet the wall?

The wells were only the visible end. Clay drains around these 1960s basements silt from the same prairie loam, and once they clog the well is just a bucket against the window. Cleaning the grate without jetting the run to daylight leaves the path blocked. June will fill the bucket again.

Does a one-inch June storm on this prairie actually pond a 1965 basement?

On this ground, yes. The year is only 35.49 inches, and June's share lands as a few evening storms on silt that will not take water fast. A month that would be ordinary on a slope is a ponding month on a prairie plat. The number is modest; the fall is not there to spend it.
