What drying runs into in Laurel
Serving Laurel and the surrounding area, including Queensburg.
Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Laurel were built and the answer is 1969 at the median, 77 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1969 with more than three quarters of the stock older, and a good deal of it a great deal older, the early floors are a single thickness of board nailed directly to the framing, with the crawl space immediately below.
Climate & seasonal risk
January brings 6.07 of the 59.64 inches Laurel sees in a normal year, and July averages 81.8 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at LAUREL, 1.8 miles away. January is the wettest month at 6.07 inches of a 60-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the ground under the floor is at its wettest in the coldest month; a single layer of board is all there is between that and the room.
How water losses tend to end in Laurel
- One thickness of timber between the room and the crawl space, so there is no buffer either way
- Gaps between boards, so water on the floor goes straight through rather than spreading
- Original flooring worth keeping, so the work is drying in place rather than removing
