What drying runs into in Moorhead
Serving Moorhead and the surrounding area, including Meadows, Town & Country Townhomes, Clara Barton, Horace Mann, Riverview Estates, Lincoln.
Local housing stock
Only 44.8 percent of Moorhead's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1983 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1983 with a little over half the stock older, the houses sit on flat valley ground that holds water and freezes deep, and slabs poured on that ground lift as the frost forms beneath them and settle again when it goes.
Climate & seasonal risk
June brings 4.66 of the 26.09 inches Moorhead sees in a normal year, and July averages 71.2 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at MOORHEAD, 1.6 miles away. June is the wettest month at under five inches of a twenty-six inch year, six months average a low below freezing and January bottoms just below zero, so the ground freezes deep and stays frozen; a slab on ground like that is moving for half the year whatever the building does.
How water losses tend to end in Moorhead
- Slabs lifting as frost forms beneath them, so the floor moves through the winter and settles in the spring
- Joints and cracks that open and close seasonally, so a route that is sealed in July is open in February
- Finishes and partitions bearing on a floor that moves, so the damage is structural before any water is involved
