Frequently asked questions
The house is from the 2000s. How is the slab already taking water in December?
Karst does not care about the build year. December rain goes into joints and comes out at the next low opening, which on a new subdivision is often a slab edge or a poorly drained swale. New construction on this rock still sits on the old plumbing.
Summer is humid. Why is December the month that actually wets these houses?
Because evaporation in December is near zero and the rain total is the year's highest. Summer storms are intense but the ground and the air can still move some of that water; a winter peak on karst is a one-way delivery into the rock with no drying interval behind it.
There is no sinkhole on the plat. Is karst still the right word for this lot?
Yes. Most of the openings are not dramatic throats; they are joints and small swallow holes the grader buried. Water that vanishes in a neighbor's swale can still be the water under your slab. The plat is a property map, not a geologic one.
