Frequently asked questions
The house is new. How can an October remnant already wet the slab edge?
New is not high. These pads sit on Beaumont clay with almost no fall, and a 5.77-inch October leftover ponds in ditches that were sized for a plat, not for a remnant on full ground. Irrigation has been wetting the same clay all summer. Age of the shingles is not the diagnosis; the prairie grade is.
The ditch in front held water for a week. Is that the bayou?
The ditch is the local stand-in. Chocolate Bayou is the mouth, and when October has the prairie full the ditch cannot empty, so it becomes a pond against the slab. You may never see the named bayou. You will see a roadside trench that will not fall. That trench is the job.
The clay cracked in August. Does that change what October does?
It opens a path. Expansive clay pulls away from the slab as it dries, and the remnant then runs down that gap to the plate before the clay can swell shut. A new house on this prairie still has that cycle. Keeping the soil moisture steadier at the edge does more than a new coat of paint on the brick.
