What drying runs into in Glenvar Heights
Serving Glenvar Heights and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
The typical Glenvar Heights house dates to 1977, with about three quarters of the stock (71.2 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1970s work. Seven in ten homes predate 1990 around a median of 1977, concrete block with a cast-in-place roof deck and tie beam, so there is no attic to catch anything and a roof-level loss runs down the inside of the wall and appears at the base of the room below.
Climate & seasonal risk
September brings 10.06 of the 65.99 inches Glenvar Heights sees in a normal year, and July averages 84.3 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at SOUTH MIAMI 0.5 N 1.3 miles away and temperatures at MIAMI WSO CITY 2.1 miles away. September is the wettest month of a year carrying sixty-six inches, and no month comes near freezing, so the building is warm and the air is heavy for most of the year; concrete in that climate releases slowly, and the roof deck is the last element to come down to a number.
How water losses tend to end in Glenvar Heights
- Cast-in-place roof decks carrying water along the slab and into the tie beam, so it shows at the wall base rather than overhead
- Block walls with furring and board on the inside face, so a wall loss is hidden behind a finish that has to come off before anything can be read
- No attic anywhere in the building, so there is no space to work from above and every opening is made in a finished room
