Frequently asked questions

The house is on a ridge. Why does the crawl take water with nothing flooding?

Sand carries it sideways. This ridge is sand hills above the Tallahatchie, so December's 6.45 inches soaks in and then moves laterally into the crawl without ever standing on the surface. Height keeps you out of the bottoms; it does not keep water out of the soil. A dry yard and a wet crawl is the normal combination on this ground.

The house is from 2000. Why is a wet crawl still the campus story?

New construction on a filled draw is still a hole in sand that conducts. A 2000 slab can wet from a perched fill while the rainfall total looks like a climate problem rather than a grading problem. Age of the house is not dryness of the draw.

Sixty inches a year. Does December's share still matter, or is every month wet?

Every month is wet, and December is when it peaks on cold ground. A July cell can leave because heat pulls moisture out. December's 6.45 inches sits, and a mild winter then keeps the crawl in that wet until spring. The peak is the timing, not the only input.
