What drying runs into in Hoover
Serving Hoover and the surrounding area, including Montreat, Shades Acres, Heatherwood, Verdue Knolls, Havenview, Highland Crest, Forest Ridge Estates, Rocky Ridge Manor.
Local housing stock
40.6 percent of Hoover's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1994, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. With a median of 1994 and only four in ten houses predating 1990, the subdivisions were cut into the ridges south of the city, which puts the front door at ground level and leaves the rear foundation wall standing exposed to its full height.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Hoover gets 58.95 inches a year with February heaviest at 6.03, and the drying season runs from a 44.7-degree January to a 81.7-degree July; rain recorded at HOOVER 1.9 NW 2.3 miles away and temperatures at HELENA 7.2 miles away. February is the wettest month at 6.03 inches of a 59-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the heaviest rain lands in winter when nothing is growing on the cut slopes; a tall wall below a bare hillside takes all of what comes down it.
How water losses tend to end in Hoover
- A foundation wall two stories tall, so the load and the water against it are both considerable
- Cut slope above the house, so everything the hillside sheds arrives at the uphill wall
- Finished rooms at the bottom level, so the wall holding back the hill has living space against it
