What drying runs into in Utica
Serving Utica and the surrounding area, including Encore Townhomes, Shelby Woods Lake & Estates.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Utica were built and the answer is 1976 at the median, 67.1 percent of them finished by 1990. The median house dates to 1976 and two thirds predate 1990, frame houses over full basements on small lots, so a loss meets framed partitions against poured walls and mechanical equipment standing on the basement floor.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 72 degrees against 24.8; the 34.01 inches a year peak in May at 3.61, rain recorded at SHELBY 0.4 SSE 2.6 miles away and temperatures at MT CLEMENS ANG BASE 10.5 miles away. May is the wettest month at 3.61 inches out of 34.01 for the year, with four months below freezing and January lows near 18 degrees, so rainfall is light and the freeze is what puts most water inside buildings.
How water losses tend to end in Utica
- Furnaces and water heaters standing directly on a basement floor that takes water first
- Light annual rainfall, so the losses here are mostly plumbing rather than weather
- Low-lying older streets where the river sets the water table
