What drying runs into in Wyoming
Serving Wyoming and the surrounding area, including Godwin Heights.
Local housing stock
Only 26.1 percent of Wyoming's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1969 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1969 with nearly three quarters predating 1990, the recurring plan is a tri-level with the entry and living space at grade, bedrooms half a story up and a family room half a story down, so the middle level shares framing with both and a failure there splits in two directions.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 42.71 inches, 4.35 of them in May, against a warm season that peaks at 71.2 degrees in July; rain recorded at GRANDVILLE 1.3 WSW 3.7 miles away and temperatures at E GRAND RAPIDS 5.8 miles away. Five months with lows below freezing run the split season from November into March, and the furnace running through it keeps the indoor air dry and the job moving; May is the wettest month, arriving while the lowest level is still cold and unwilling to release.
How water losses tend to end in Wyoming
- Tri-level plans where the middle floor shares framing with the levels above and below, so one failure produces two separate wet areas
- Short runs of stairs between every level, so water moves between floors through carpeted flights rather than down a single stack
- Lower levels set half below grade, so the coldest and slowest part of the building is also where the water collects
