What drying runs into in Daly City
Serving Daly City and the surrounding area, including Crocker-Amazon, Westlake.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Daly City were built and the answer is 1965 at the median, 88.6 percent of them finished by 1990. The median house dates to 1965 and the type repeats for whole blocks: stucco over frame with one floor of living space above a garage, and the plumbing wall often shared with the house next door, so a supply failure runs down through the framing and shows on the garage ceiling first.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Daly City has a normal low below freezing, and January is the coolest at 45.7 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in December at 4.22 inches of an annual 20.64; both figures recorded at SAN FRANCISCO OCEANSIDE, 2.9 miles away. The warm season peaks near 62 degrees and the marine layer keeps the air damp through it, so there is no month in which a building dries appreciably faster than in any other and a July loss takes as long as a January one.
How water losses tend to end in Daly City
- Plumbing walls shared between attached houses, so one supply failure wets framing in two homes on the way down
- Garage ceilings finished in drywall, so water pools above the board and is found only when it sags
- Cool damp air the whole year round, so an assembly left to finish on its own does not, and a job closed on appearance comes back
