What drying runs into in Brandon
Serving Brandon and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
40.9 percent of Brandon's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1996, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. With a median of 1996 and only two houses in five predating 1990, the floors are slab-on-grade poured over a clay subgrade that swells when wet and shrinks when dry, so a slab here is rarely uncracked; the cracks are where a supply failure underneath makes itself known.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 59.79 inches, 5.96 of them in April, against a warm season that peaks at 82.1 degrees in July; rain recorded at BRANDON 1.9 NE 1.6 miles away and temperatures at JACKSON INTL AP 5.9 miles away. April is the wettest month at close to six inches of a sixty inch year with no freezing month and a warm season in the low nineties, so the ground under the slab goes through a large wet-to-dry swing every year; the clay is at its most active in spring, which is when floor cracks open and a slab loss finds its way up.
How water losses tend to end in Brandon
- Clay under the slab that swells and shrinks seasonally, so the floor carries cracks before any water is involved
- Water from a failed line under the pour surfacing at those cracks, so it appears in the middle of a room rather than at a wall
- Cracks that make the wet area impossible to read from the surface, so the extent is found by meter through the slab rather than by eye
