Local housing stock
70 percent of Savannah's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1971, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. The median house dates to 1971 and seven in ten predate 1990, a mix of raised frame houses and masonry on shallow crawl spaces, so a loss commonly ends under the floor rather than in the rooms and the ground beneath stays wet longest.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Savannah gets 51.99 inches a year with August heaviest at 7.25, and the drying season runs from a 50.7-degree January to a 83-degree July; rain recorded at SAVANNAH 1.7 W 2.3 miles away and temperatures at SAVANNAH INTL AP 7.8 miles away. August is the wettest month at 7.25 inches against 51.99 for the year, with July highs above 92 degrees and no freezing month, so the wet season is long and warm and an enclosed underfloor space has almost nothing working in its favor.
How water losses tend to end in Savannah
- Shallow crawl spaces sitting close to a high water table, so the ground under the house never fully dries
- Ductwork under the floor taking water, so the system is opened and read before it is run again
- Masonry piers wicking ground moisture up into the floor framing after a loss
