What drying runs into in Garland
Serving Garland and the surrounding area, including Firewheel, Duck Creek, Coomer Creek.
Local housing stock
73.7 percent of Garland's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1978, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1978 with nearly three quarters predating 1990, these houses have their toilets set on the original flanges with a wax seal between the fixture and the drain, which is how they were fitted and how most have stayed.
Climate & seasonal risk
May brings 4.87 of the 41.79 inches Garland sees in a normal year, and July averages 84.8 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; rain recorded at ROWLETT 2.3 NW 3.5 miles away and temperatures at RICHARDSON 8.8 miles away. May is the wettest month at 4.87 inches of a 41.79-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so weather plays almost no part in what damages these houses; the failures are internal, and this is one that leaks downward by definition.
How water losses tend to end in Garland
- A seal that fails slowly and silently, releasing under the fixture rather than around it
- Water going into the floor structure at every flush rather than continuously
- Damage to subfloor and joists established long before anything appears in the room
