What drying runs into in Carney
Serving Carney and the surrounding area, including Revere Park, Harford Farms, Village of Vanderway, Cub Hill, Doncaster Village, Harford Hills, North Wind, Knoll Acres.
Local housing stock
The typical Carney house dates to 1980, with about three quarters of the stock (70.2 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1980s work. Around a median of 1980 with seven in ten houses older, the foundations were poured in two stages with the footing first and the wall on top of it, and the floor slab later still, so there is an unbonded horizontal seam right round the base of every basement wall.
Climate & seasonal risk
October brings 4.88 of the 48.6 inches Carney sees in a normal year, and July averages 77.9 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at HAMILTON 0.3 NE 3.6 miles away and temperatures at CYLBURN 7.9 miles away. October is the wettest month at close to five inches of a forty-nine inch year with three months averaging a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain arrives as the heating season begins; a seam at the base of the wall takes that water in at the point the building is least able to see it.
How water losses tend to end in Carney
- An unbonded seam round the whole perimeter, so there is a continuous route at the base of every basement wall
- Water arriving at the floor rather than down the wall, so the wall reads dry above the line and wet at it
- A joint rather than a crack, so there is nothing localized to point at and the whole perimeter behaves the same way
