What drying runs into in Ventura
Serving Ventura and the surrounding area, including Mission District, Simpson Tract, Mitchell Block, Selwyn Shaw.
Local housing stock
75.8 percent of Ventura's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1973, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1973 with three quarters of the stock older, the houses are ordinary frame and stucco, and what ages differently is the metal in them: nails, screws, flashings and fixings, which corrode in coastal air far faster than the timber or render they are holding together.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a August job at one pace and a January job at another, 67.1 degrees against 56; the 16.06 inches a year peak in February at 3.81, rain recorded at VENTURA 2.4 miles away and temperatures at OXNARD VENTURA CO AP 5.4 miles away. February is the wettest month at under four inches of a sixteen inch year and the warm season only reaches the low seventies, so there is little rain and no heat; the air itself is the agent here rather than the weather, and it works on the building every day of the year.
How water losses tend to end in Ventura
- Fixings that corrode long before the materials they hold, so assemblies come apart at their joints rather than failing in the middle
- Flashings that thin and perforate, so the detail meant to keep water out is the first part to go
- Damage concentrated at connections, so the wet areas map to how the building was put together
