What drying runs into in Palm Harbor
Serving Palm Harbor and the surrounding area, including Westlake Village, Crystal Cove Villas, Villas of San Marino, Beacon Groves, Orangepointe, Allen's Ridge, The Villas of Beacon Groves, Hilltop Groves Estates.
Local housing stock
The typical Palm Harbor house dates to 1985, with about three quarters of the stock (75 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly mid 1980s work. Around a median of 1985 with three quarters of the stock older, the roofs are barrel tile with the ridge and hip courses bedded and pointed in mortar rather than fixed dry, and that mortar is the part of the roof that moves most and fails first.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 55.21 inches, 10.21 of them in July, against a warm season that peaks at 83.3 degrees in August; rain recorded at DUNEDIN 2.8 ESE 3.5 miles away and temperatures at TARPON SPGS SEWAGE PLT 4.7 miles away. July is the wettest month at over ten inches of a fifty-five inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the roof takes an enormous volume in the wet season; mortar that has cracked at the ridge admits it at the highest point, from which it runs the whole slope.
How water losses tend to end in Palm Harbor
- Mortar bedding at the ridge and hips, so the highest part of the roof depends on a material that cracks
- Water entering at the top, so it runs the full length of the slope under the tile before it comes in
- A failure invisible from the ground, because a cracked ridge looks the same as a sound one from below
