What drying runs into in Las Vegas
Serving Las Vegas and the surrounding area, including Lone Mountain, Desert Shores, North Cheyenne, Centennial Hills, The Hills, The Pueblo, The Hills South, Inner Northwest.
Local housing stock
Only 61.3 percent of Las Vegas's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1994 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Stucco-over-frame tract houses on slabs from the 1990s and later, with drywall, tile and vinyl-plank floors, are nearly all of the stock, so a loss is a supply-line or water-heater failure across a slab, and the newer floating floors are what usually come up.
Climate & seasonal risk
No month in Las Vegas has a normal low below freezing, and December is the coolest at 38 degrees. The rain side of the calendar peaks in February at 0.89 inches of an annual 6.09; rain recorded at NORTH LAS VEGAS 4.4 SW 3.3 miles away and temperatures at LAS VEGAS AIR TERMINAL 4.1 miles away. With about six inches of rain a year and dry air in every month, drying is quick once the water is out, while the summer heat that stresses supply lines and water heaters is the reason most losses happen in the first place.
How water losses tend to end in Las Vegas
- Supply lines and water heaters failing in summer heat, so a slab floor is extracted and dried while the air does most of the work
- Vinyl-plank floors over slab trapping water underneath, so the floor comes up and the concrete is read before it is relaid
- Tile over a slab hiding a leak for weeks, so the floor is lifted where the slab reads wet and the concrete is dried directly
