What drying runs into in Williston
Serving Williston and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
Roughly 6,802 of Williston's 15,107 homes went up before 1990, putting the median build year at 2003; what dries in place and what comes out follows from that. With a median of 2003 and under half the stock predating 1990, much of this housing went up quickly and the drainage and grading around it were finished to varying standards, and correcting any of that means excavation on ground that is available only part of the year.
Climate & seasonal risk
Drying here is a July job at one pace and a January job at another, 70.4 degrees against 11.6; the 15.11 inches a year peak in June at 2.64, both figures recorded at WILLISTON SLOULIN INTL AP, 1.2 miles away. June is the wettest month at 2.64 inches of a 15-inch year with January lows around one degree and seven months averaging a freeze, so the water is scarce and the season for doing anything about it outside is short.
How water losses tend to end in Williston
- Excavation and grading possible only part of the year, so the outside half of a repair is seasonal
- A loss in November with no exterior work available until April, so the interior must hold until then
- Temporary measures running for months rather than days, so they have to be built to last
