Frequently asked questions
The creeks are cut well below the houses. Why does that still matter?
They carry the runoff through the grid without taking it away. Both creeks cut the ridge, and July water runs across a bungalow layout that was never regraded to meet them. The depth of the channel is not the issue; the route above it is.
Ninety-three percent pre-1990. What does that mean on a block?
It means there is no newer house to copy a detail from. The block is all original downspouts, all original wells, all original drain tile if any. A July storm tests the whole street as one grading job, and a single settled yard can wet two or three basements that share the swale.
Only the uphill basement wall is wet after a storm. Leak or till?
Till, usually. Water that entered the slope above the house is still moving along the clay contact days later and arriving at the buried face. A plumbing leak is local and ongoing. A wet uphill wall that tracks July cells is the hillside doing what till does.
