Frequently asked questions
Newer subdivision, steep terrain. What is the main water risk?
Usually the cut-and-fill boundary. Building on ridge terrain means excavating and backfilling, and water runs preferentially along the seam between disturbed and undisturbed ground. That path is invisible from the surface and does not follow the finished grade, which is why it surprises people.
How seriously should sinkhole activity be taken?
For water damage the practical concern is not collapse but routing. Carbonate rock with solution features moves water through channels, so drainage designed from surface topography can be undercut. Actual collapse is uncommon; unpredictable subsurface flow in the same terrain is routine.
Is a 1990s house old enough to have drainage problems?
Comfortably. Thirty years is long enough for grading to settle, for downspout discharge to erode a channel, and for perimeter drainage to silt up. Age of construction and age of the drainage performance are different things, and the second one degrades faster.
