Local housing stock
13.8 percent of Huntersville's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 2004, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. With a median of 2004 and barely one house in seven predating 1990, the ground around these buildings is backfill that was placed and graded when they went up, and it has been consolidating ever since; the fall it was given has flattened and in places reversed.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Huntersville gets 43.02 inches a year with August heaviest at 4.22, and the drying season runs from a 42.1-degree January to a 80.1-degree July; rain recorded at MT HOLLY 4 NE 8.3 miles away and temperatures at CHARLOTTE DOUGLAS AP 13.6 miles away. August is the wettest month at over four inches of a forty-three inch year with one month averaging a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in the warmest part of the year; ground that now falls toward the building delivers that rain to the foundation rather than away from it.
How water losses tend to end in Huntersville
- Backfill that has settled since construction, so the grade the house was given is not the grade it has now
- A fall that has reversed close to the wall, so rain is directed at the building rather than away
- A change that happened gradually, so nothing about it looks wrong and nobody has noticed
