Frequently asked questions
Ten inches a year. How is moisture even an issue?
Because it arrives all at once. Caliche absorbs almost none of a monsoon burst, so the water that would infiltrate a prairie soil becomes a shallow flood across the lot. A slab detailed for a dry climate then sits in a pond it was never expected to see, and the bottom plate wicks from there.
An arroyo behind the house looks harmless. When is it not?
On the afternoon a cell sits over the fan above it. These channels carry a season of water in an hour and then go dry again, so the hazard is invisible for months. A pad graded toward one, or a wall built in the historic flow path, finds that out the first time the monsoon is late and heavy.
We water the desert landscaping. Could that move the slab?
On this soil, yes. Keeping one side of a foundation wet while the caliche on the other stays baked produces a moisture gradient the slab will follow. Consistency around the whole perimeter matters more here than the total amount of water applied.
