Why hillside drainage matters in Walnut Creek
Walnut Creek homes sit below Shell Ridge, Lime Ridge, Acalanes Ridge and the Mount Diablo foothills. In atmospheric river storms the soil saturates and the next rain runs off toward foundations, garages and crawl spaces.
- Extend downspouts several feet from the foundation.
- Keep area drains, swales and gutters clear of oak leaves.
- Make sure soil slopes away from the house.
- Check crawl space vents and the access hatch after the first big storm.
If water already got in, see hillside runoff water intrusion or crawl space water removal.
