What drying runs into in White Plains
Serving White Plains and the surrounding area, including Secor Gardens, Hartsdale, Fairview.
Local housing stock
The typical White Plains house dates to 1961, with over four fifths of the stock (78.4 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1960s work. Around a median of 1961 with nearly eight in ten houses older, the roofs were finished without the small metal flashing at the eave that carries water off the deck and over the front edge of the gutter.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, White Plains gets 47.75 inches a year with September heaviest at 4.94, and the drying season runs from a 29.8-degree January to a 74-degree July; both figures recorded at WESTCHESTER CO AP, 3.7 miles away. September is the wettest month at 4.94 inches of a 48-inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the eave is wet in autumn and then carries ice for months; water getting behind a gutter freezes there and stays.
How water losses tend to end in White Plains
- Water tracking back under the shingle edge, so the fascia takes it rather than the gutter
- A whole roof edge affected, so the damage runs the length of the eave rather than at a point
- Rot behind the gutter, so it is hidden by the thing that appears to be doing its job
