Frequently asked questions
The basement wets from below with no crack anywhere. What is that?
Peat around the lake. It holds a July table right under these 1970s basements and feeds them from underneath, so there is no entry point to find. The floor is the entry.
Minnehaha Creek is a parkway. Can it still wet a rambler a block off?
When July fills the corridor, the water table in the peat rises sideways, and a basement at that grade is a hole in the creek. You do not need water over the parkway path; you need the peat full. A rambler a block off the named water can still sit in that table.
A rise two streets from Cornelia. Is that still a peat job?
Usually not. Till on the rises perches rain and sends it into original tile; the peat is downhill. A wet wall on the rise is a clay-tile story. Treating every wet basement in town as a lake-peat problem will have you looking at Cornelia from a lot that never touches it.
