Local housing stock
83.4 percent of Biddeford's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1952, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1952 with more than four in five houses older, the cellars were given an outside entrance under a sloping steel cover beside the house, which is how coal, furnaces and everything else large ever got down there.
Climate & seasonal risk
October brings 5.66 of the 50.65 inches Biddeford sees in a normal year, and July averages 67.3 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at BIDDEFORD 1.5 NNE 3.9 miles away and temperatures at KENNEBUNKPORT 6.6 miles away. October is the wettest month at 5.66 inches of a 51-inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands just before winter and then snow sits on the same cover for months; both drain to the same place at the bottom.
How water losses tend to end in Biddeford
- A sloping cover at ground level, so rain and meltwater run down it toward the cellar
- A drain at the bottom of the steps that silts up, so the well below the doors fills
- Steel and masonry in contact through a long freeze, so the seal at the edges opens over time
