Frequently asked questions
The stain is on our uphill wall and our roof is fine. What next?
Look up the hill before you open a wall. On this slope the house above you is the catchment, and a downspout that terminates at the property line is wetting your masonry whether anyone intended it. A conversation about that outlet, or a short extension, is usually cheaper than a masonry repair that will fail again in the next May storm.
The brick is a hundred years old and has always been a little damp. Tolerate it?
A little damp is the original design; a lot of damp is a failed detail. Lime mortar was meant to pass moisture, so sealing the inside face traps water in the wall. Keeping the uphill splash off and the gutters working is the productive path; a coating on the inside is not.
We sit on the Licking, not the Ohio. Does the Ohio still set our water?
It sets the Licking's mouth. When the Ohio is high the Licking cannot discharge, and the terrace blocks take that backwater even if the Licking's own flow is modest. Two rivers, one stage problem, and a forecast that only names the Licking is missing the control.
