Frequently asked questions
Eight inches a year. Is indoor moisture even a local issue?
The total is not the event. A September burst on baked ground runs to the slab edge in minutes, and irrigation seepage wets benches all summer without registering on a rain gauge. Dry air outdoors also delays discovery, so a supply-line failure can run for weeks before anyone smells it.
The yard is dust. How can the slab be taking water?
From the side and from below, not through the dust. Canal seepage and a monsoon sheet both arrive at the perimeter, and Mancos shale under many lots holds what it gets. A dry surface is compatible with a wet footing.
The house moves after the monsoon and again in spring. Same cause?
Same soil, two directions. Shale and clay swell when the burst or the canal wets them and shrink through the dry months, so a slab here is worked twice a year. The cracks that open in May often started as a September wetting.
