Frequently asked questions
The Lowlands were dry at lunch. Why were they wet after supper?
The caprock is still draining, and the limestone under it is a plumbing system. December water that sheeted off sandstone drops into seams and travels. A crawlspace in the dissected valley is an exit, not always an entry. Surface grading will not show that pulse arriving.
We sit on top of the plateau. Is the Falling Water still involved?
As flood, no. As the reason the rock is cut, and as the destination of every roof on the top, yes. The top-side problem is sheet flow to the next house down the bench. The valley problem is karst. Same December, two jobs.
The house is from the early 1990s. Does the rock still matter?
The detailing changed; the rock did not. A 1991 ranch on sandstone still sheds into the next cut. A 1991 basement dropped into a valley still holds the hillside. Age of the house is a poor test of which hydrology you bought, because both vintages sit on the same dissected plateau.
