Local housing stock
70.4 percent of Wichita's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1974, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Brick and frame ranches on slabs and full basements are the ordinary stock, so a loss is a basement job in one house and a slab-and-drywall job in the next, and the hot dry summer after the storm season is on the contractor's side once the water is out.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 81.5 degrees against 33.2; the 35.6 inches a year peak in May at 5.57, rain recorded at WICHITA 3.2 NW 2.9 miles away and temperatures at WICHITA 5.8 miles away. May is the wettest month and the storm season when roofs are opened and basements take water, while the hot summer with modest humidity lets a sealed room dry in a few days, and three months of freezing lows keep split lines on the winter calendar.
How water losses tend to end in Wichita
- Hail and wind opening roofs in May storms, so the attic insulation comes out and the ceiling cavity is dried before the roof is patched
- Basements taking storm-season seepage, so the pad and lower drywall come out and the concrete is dried in a sealed run
- Supply lines in exterior walls splitting in a January freeze, so the thaw reveals a loss that ran across a slab
