Local housing stock
Only 37 percent of Denver's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1975 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Brick and frame ranches and two-stories on full basements, many finished later, are the typical stock, and because the basements sit on expansive soils that shift, seepage and cracked slabs are the ordinary losses, dried in a climate that is on the contractor's side once the water is out.
Climate & seasonal risk
May brings 2.29 of the 15.36 inches Denver sees in a normal year, and July averages 74.8 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at DENVER-STAPLETON, 0.6 miles away. The air here is dry in every season, so a sealed room with equipment reaches the dry standard faster than in most of the country, while freezing lows from November into March put split supply lines on the calendar and spring hail puts water into attics.
How water losses tend to end in Denver
- Window wells filling in a May thunderstorm and going over the sill, so the basement is dried at that wall and the well is re-drained outside before the finish goes back
- Hail-opened roofs in a spring storm letting water into attic batts, so the ceiling is opened under the stain and the insulation removed before the roof is patched
- Expansive clay heaving a basement slab and opening a crack under the finished floor, so the covering comes up along that line and the concrete is dried and read before it is closed
