What drying runs into in Toledo
Serving Toledo and the surrounding area, including Bancroft-Upton-Monroe, Clinton Park Neighborhood, Auburn-Delaware, Westmoreland, Ottawa, Roosevelt, Bancroft Hills, Old West End.
Local housing stock
Only 10.4 percent of Toledo's housing went up after 1989, so the median build year sits at 1955 and the drying scope is set by that era's materials. Around a median of 1955 with nearly nine in ten houses older, the perimeter drainage was laid at the same level as the basement floor rather than below the footing, which means it can only take water that has already risen to the height of the slab.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Toledo gets 36.96 inches a year with May heaviest at 3.84, and the drying season runs from a 26.9-degree January to a 74.7-degree July; rain recorded at TOLEDO 2.4 ENE 2.4 miles away and temperatures at TOLEDO METCALF FLD 8.9 miles away. May is the wettest month at under four inches of a thirty-seven inch year and four months average a low below freezing, so the heaviest rain lands in spring on flat lake-plain ground that drains slowly; the water table comes up to floor level before the drainage does anything at all.
How water losses tend to end in Toledo
- Drainage at floor level rather than below it, so the system only engages once the water is already at the slab
- Water arriving at the floor before the drain takes it, so the basement is wet every time the system works as built
- Flat ground that drains slowly, so the water table sits at that level for weeks rather than hours
