Frequently asked questions
Can the Kansas River high-water a house that sits on a creek?
Yes, through the creek's mouth. Shunganunga Creek cannot discharge into a high Kansas River, so it backwaters into the low blocks along its own banks. A creek flood on those streets is often the river standing in the tributary, and the useful number is the Kansas stage, not the rain on your block.
The basement was dry for 30 years and now seeps every May. What changed?
The coating. A tar film on a 1960s wall was never a permanent barrier, and once it is brittle the till's perched spring water has a path. Thirty dry years and then a seepage season is a common timetable for that failure, not a change in the weather.
The same crack opens every wet year. Fill it?
Fill it if you like, but expect it back. Clay in the till changes volume with moisture, and that crack is the wall reporting the cycle. Keeping water off the outside and humidity down inside does more than a new bead of sealant each May.
