What drying runs into in Westland
Serving Westland and the surrounding area, including Norwayne.
Local housing stock
The typical Westland house dates to 1969, with over four fifths of the stock (82.8 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1960s work. Around a median of 1969 with over eight in ten homes predating 1990, an unusual share of the stock for this part of the country is slab-on-grade rather than basement, so the perimeter of the floor is in direct contact with ground that freezes, and the wall plate bearing on it sits at that temperature.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 74.1 degrees against 25.8; the 35.09 inches a year peak in May at 3.77, rain recorded at DEARBORN HEIGHTS 1.8 NW 4.3 miles away and temperatures at DETROIT METRO AP 6.6 miles away. Four months with lows below freezing put the split season from December into March, and a slab edge through that stretch is the coldest surface in the building; the May rain peak lands while the perimeter is still carrying winter temperature and unwilling to release.
How water losses tend to end in Westland
- Slab perimeters at frost depth through the winter, so the coldest and slowest part of the building is also where the wall plates sit
- Supply lines run in or along that perimeter, so a split happens at the coldest point rather than at a fixture
- No basement to take water, so a loss stays on the living floor rather than draining to a level below it
