What drying runs into in Bowman
Serving Bowman and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
76.6 percent of Bowman's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1980, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1980 with over three quarters predating 1990, these houses stand on masonry piers with the space between them closed by a single skin of brick or block, built to keep the crawl space closed rather than to hold anything up.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Bowman gets 50.11 inches a year with December heaviest at 4.87, and the drying season runs from a 41.7-degree January to a 78.8-degree July; rain recorded at COMER 3.5 NNE 7.8 miles away and temperatures at ELBERTON 2 N 11 miles away. December is the wettest month at 4.87 inches of a 50.11-inch year and one month averages lows below freezing, so the wettest weather comes in winter when the ground is soft; a curtain wall standing on nothing but the soil moves with it.
How water losses tend to end in Bowman
- A wall with no footing, so it cracks and opens as the ground beneath it moves
- Openings at the ground line that let surface water into the crawl space directly
- A closure that looks structural, so its failure gets read as a foundation problem
