What drying runs into in Mount Pleasant
Serving Mount Pleasant and the surrounding area, including Hunters Trace, Planters Place, The Watch at Shem Creek, Village Creek, Hermitage, Shemwood II, Pleasant Pines, Marsh Pointe.
Local housing stock
The typical Mount Pleasant house dates to 2000, with about a third of the stock (30.2 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 2000s work. The median house dates to 2000 and under a third predate 1990, frame with fiber-cement siding on raised slabs and elevated foundations, so a ground-level loss reaches the slab and the lower wall while the elevated stock puts the wet framing overhead instead.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Mount Pleasant gets 54.31 inches a year with August heaviest at 7.65, and the drying season runs from a 47.8-degree January to a 82-degree July; rain recorded at MOUNT PLEASANT 1.0 WSW 1.2 miles away and temperatures at SULLIVANS IS 3.3 miles away. August is the wettest month at 7.65 inches against 54.31 for the year, with July highs near 91 degrees and no freezing month, so the late-summer wet season is warm and long and offers no dry stretch to finish on.
How water losses tend to end in Mount Pleasant
- Elevated foundations putting the wet framing overhead, so drying is set up beneath the floor
- Fiber-cement siding holding water at the base course against the sheathing
- No freezing month, so nothing closed up damp will correct itself later
