What drying runs into in Salina
Serving Salina and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
80.6 percent of Salina's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1965, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1965 with four in five houses older, the basement walls were poured against forms held together with ties through the concrete, and when the forms came off those ties left small openings right through the wall at regular spacing across the whole surface.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 31.96 inches, 4.84 of them in May, against a warm season that peaks at 80.9 degrees in July; rain recorded at SALINA 0.7 SSW 0.6 miles away and temperatures at SALINA MUNI AP 2.1 miles away. May is the wettest month at close to five inches of a thirty-two inch year with three months averaging a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in a warm spring; a wall with openings through it takes that water at a dozen points at once rather than at one.
How water losses tend to end in Salina
- Small openings right through the wall at regular spacing, so the route in is repeated rather than local
- Patching that was cosmetic rather than sealed, so the filling fails long before the concrete does
- Water arriving at several points at once, so the pattern looks like general seepage rather than a defect
