Frequently asked questions
There is a Rochester in New York. Do we share a moisture story?
We share a name and a June-or-July wet month, not a ground. That city sits on glacial till along the Genesee and Lake Ontario, and lake-effect snowmelt is its spring event. This one sits on Driftless karst along the Zumbro, and the water moves through limestone joints. The two pages are written so a swap test cannot confuse them.
A sink in the yard keeps coming back. On this limestone?
Treat it as karst until proven otherwise. Residual clay over Decorah and Galena can collapse where water is concentrated, and filling the hole without finding the downspout or the leaking line just hides the next drop. A 1989 house is not too new for that.
No stream is on the lot. After June storms the basement is wet. Is that the rock?
Very likely. Joints are the streams here. Rain that left the surface a block upslope can travel the limestone and exit at a footing, so a dry yard is the expected surface, not evidence that the path is empty. A moisture meter on the wall tells you whether you are looking at that joint or at a plumbing fault.
