What drying runs into in Thousand Oaks
Serving Thousand Oaks and the surrounding area, including Newbury Park, North Ranch Country Club Estates, Westlake Bay, Westshore, Westlake Hills, Bridgehaven, Lynnmere, San Alicia.
Local housing stock
The typical Thousand Oaks house dates to 1978, with about three quarters of the stock (75.6 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1970s work. Around a median of 1978 with three quarters of the stock older, the houses were built on pads cut into the slope and built out with the material removed, so one part of a building bears on undisturbed ground and the other on placed fill that drains and settles differently.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a August job at one pace and a December job at another, 70.2 degrees against 55.8; the 16.1 inches a year peak in February at 4.14, rain recorded at THOUSAND OAKS 2.1 WSW 1.8 miles away and temperatures at CAMARILLO AP 12.1 miles away. February is the wettest month at over four inches of a sixteen inch year and the warm season only reaches the high seventies, so the rain is slight and the heat is mild; neither does much, and what governs a slab loss here is which half of the pad it happened over.
How water losses tend to end in Thousand Oaks
- One building bearing on two kinds of ground, so a below-slab loss drains on one side and stands on the other
- Fill that holds water and gives it back slowly, so the readings on that half of the floor lag the rest
- A line across the building nothing on the surface shows, so the change is found from the readings rather than from the plan
