Frequently asked questions
This was a planned village. Why would the drainage fail now?
Because the plan is seventy years old. The streets, parks, and tiles were sized for the first wave of houses and for storms that the 1958 stock still remembers as manageable. A 4.91 inch June on silted pipes is more than that grid can move. The layout is not the leak. The age of the layout is.
Every house on the block has a basement. Do they all wet at once?
Often, yes. The first building wave put floors at the same depth on the same clay, all tying into the same village lines. When those lines surcharge, the whole block is the low opening. A dry house on a wet block is usually the one whose tile already failed in a way that no longer connects to the street.
The park across the street is soggy after June rain. Is that related?
By design. The greenways were the village's receivers. In a month that overloads the pipes they hold water at the grade of the nearest basements. A 1958 wall facing the park is then at the receiving line. The park doing its job and the basement taking water can be the same event.
