Frequently asked questions
The swale on this lot has filled in. Does that matter much?
It matters completely. Those swales were the drainage, and they silt shut in the same clay they were cut through, so the lot loses its only path and May water reaches the grade beam instead. The feature failed quietly.
This tract sits on old prairie swales. What does that mean when the fork is up?
The swales still fill. East Fork backwater reaches the low lines the subdivision was built across, so a 2000s tract takes water along drainage that predates every street on the plat. The houses changed; the low ground did not.
The ground cracked open in August and now May rain gets under the house. Connected?
Directly. Houston Black clay opens fissures in the late-summer dry, and the first heavy May rain uses them as a path straight under the grade beams. The crack you noticed in August is the route the water took in spring.
