What drying runs into in Tamarac
Serving Tamarac and the surrounding area, including Woodlands, Mainlands.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Tamarac were built and the answer is 1981 at the median, 71.7 percent of them finished by 1990. Seven in ten units predate 1990 and the typical one is block with a low-slope roof over a continuous pour, so what comes out is the base of the drywall, the furring behind it and the floor covering, while the block and the concrete are dried where they stand.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Tamarac gets 56.5 inches a year with September heaviest at 8.13, and the drying season runs from a 67.7-degree January to a 84.1-degree August; both figures recorded at FT LAUDERDALE EXECUTIVE AP, 5.3 miles away. The wet season closes in September rather than opening with it, so a loss at the peak is followed by months of drier air that will finish an assembly left open, and closing a wall back up too early is the decision that costs the job.
How water losses tend to end in Tamarac
- Party walls on a shared pour carrying a loss into the attached home, so two owners and two policies are involved before any equipment is set
- Low-slope roofs draining to interior leaders, so a roof-origin loss arrives at an inside wall rather than at an outside one
- Vinyl plank laid over the original terrazzo, so water sits between two tight layers and the newer floor comes up to reach the older one
