Frequently asked questions
The lot was never in a floodplain. Why does water stand there now?
The ground moved. Underground mining can lower a surface by inches to feet years after the coal came out, and the new depression is not on any flood map because it did not exist when the maps were drawn. July rain then has a bowl to fill that the original grade did not.
Can drainage from old mines reach a house that was built later?
It can, through the fill and the rock. Workings that no longer pump still move water, and a later house on that ground can see seepage that has nothing to do with its own plumbing. The chemistry is often enough to stain, even when the volume is small.
A crawlspace on the plateau feels wet with no standing water. Why?
Clay and no barrier. Much of this stock was set on native soil with open joists, and at 2,400 feet the air stays cool enough that the ground never fully dries. Moisture moves as vapor into the floor system without ever making a puddle you could point at.
