What drying runs into in Orlando
Serving Orlando and the surrounding area, including Lake Nona, Bal Bay, Airport North, Vista East, Vista Park, East Park, Countryside, Randal Park.
Local housing stock
The typical Orlando house dates to 1992, with about half of the stock (46.9 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1990s work. Tract houses from the 1990s and later dominate: slab-on-grade, wood or block, with drywall, vinyl plank or laminate floors and particleboard cabinets, so a loss is mostly a question of which of those newer materials can be saved, and most of the floating floors and cabinet bases cannot.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Orlando has a normal low below freezing, and January is the coolest at 49.5 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in June at 8.05 inches of an annual 51.45; both figures recorded at ORLANDO INTL AP, 4.6 miles away. Rain peaks in June with the start of the daily storm season and the air stays heavy through September, so drying runs are longest in summer, while a loss in the drier winter months can be brought to a reading in a few days without fighting the outside air.
How water losses tend to end in Orlando
- Floating vinyl-plank and laminate floors from the 1990s and later swelling at the joints within a day, so the floor comes up and the slab is dried underneath
- Particleboard cabinet bases in newer kitchens wicking a dishwasher leak, so the cabinet run is pulled rather than dried
- Daily summer storms keeping indoor humidity high, so a small loss still runs on sealed dehumidification for a full week
