What drying runs into in Chico
Serving Chico and the surrounding area, including No sidewalk riding district.
Local housing stock
60.8 percent of Chico's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1983, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1983 with six in ten houses older, the older neighborhoods were laid out among mature valley oaks that were already large, so very substantial trees stand within a few feet of foundations.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 78.1 degrees against 46.1; the 28.35 inches a year peak in January at 5.64, rain recorded at CHICO 2.9 W 2.4 miles away and temperatures at CHICO UNIV FARM 4.7 miles away. January is the wettest month at 5.64 inches of a 28-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the rain falls while the oaks are bare and the ground is wettest; through the long dry summer those same trees draw it back out.
How water losses tend to end in Chico
- A tree drawing heavily from the ground beside a foundation, so the soil dries unevenly
- Roots under the slab and the drive, so paving is lifted and lines are found
- Protected trees, so removal is rarely the available answer
