Frequently asked questions
Where does runoff actually end up in a city with no river?
In playa basins — shallow closed depressions scattered across the caprock that fill after a storm and empty mainly by evaporation. Water reaching one is not passing through on its way somewhere else, so the ground around it stays loaded far longer than a drainage map would suggest.
Our house feels bone dry inside. Could there still be a moisture problem?
Comfortably, yes. Growth needs wet material, not humid rooms, so a leak inside a wall proceeds on its own schedule regardless of what the thermostat reads. What the arid air removes is the warning: no musty smell, no condensation on glass, and often no clue until something is visible.
The ground looks like packed dirt. Does that affect drainage?
Substantially. Caliche is a cemented layer that forms in dry soils and behaves closer to pavement than to earth, so infiltration effectively stops where it begins. A modest storm on that surface generates runoff out of all proportion to the rainfall total behind it.
