Frequently asked questions
The house is from 2004. How can the crawlspace already be wet?
New is not drained. Pasture was graded to a pad on red clay, and August rain sits against that pad because clay will not take it. Shoreline lots add a lake table. The median year tells you the stock is young, not that the ground was prepared for a wet month.
We are not on the water. Is the lake still involved?
Only on the shoreline streets. Inland lots fail from clay grading: water against the foundation because the yard tilts in. Lake lots fail from a raised table after August storms. Ask where the lot sits relative to the Catawba before assuming one mechanism.
July can dump more in an hour. Why is August the problem month?
August is when the clay is already sealed from a summer of storms and the lake is high. A July burst can still leave. An August burst lands on ground that has not reset, so the same inches stay against the crawlspace instead of running off.
