What drying runs into in North Miami
Serving North Miami and the surrounding area, including Keystone Point, Sans Souci, Sunkist Grove.
Local housing stock
85.7 percent of North Miami's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1967, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1967 with over eight in ten homes predating 1990, a great deal of the stock is two and three story walk-up built around open exterior corridors, so the entry to each home is a door onto a deck that is outdoors, and the floor inside starts at the same level as that deck.
Climate & seasonal risk
June brings 9.13 of the 65.88 inches North Miami sees in a normal year, and August averages 83.1 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at BISCAYNE PARK 0.3 E 1.4 miles away and temperatures at N MIAMI BEACH #2 4.5 miles away. June is the wettest month of a sixty-six inch year and nothing freezes, so the heaviest rain falls in warm weather on an open walkway; the water that comes in at a door in that season lands in a building that will not dry it without equipment.
How water losses tend to end in North Miami
- Open exterior corridors draining toward unit doors, so water enters at door level rather than through the building fabric
- Interior floors level with the outside deck, so there is no step to hold water back at the entry
- Entry halls and closets taking the water first, so the wet area starts at the door and moves inward through the plan
