What drying runs into in Richardson
Serving Richardson and the surrounding area.
Local housing stock
54.7 percent of Richardson's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1986, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. Around a median of 1986 with over half the stock older, these neighborhoods are laid out with service alleys behind the lots, and the sewer main runs down the alley rather than under the street, so every house drains backward across its own yard.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Richardson gets 40.09 inches a year with May heaviest at 4.81, and the drying season runs from a 45.8-degree January to a 84.8-degree July; rain recorded at RICHARDSON 2.2 NW 2.3 miles away and temperatures at RICHARDSON 2.6 miles away. May is the wettest month at 4.81 inches of a 40.09-inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the ground over that run swells and shrinks with the seasons rather than freezing; clay moving under a long shallow lateral is what pulls its joints apart.
How water losses tend to end in Richardson
- A long private drain line under a planted yard rather than a short one under a drive
- Mature trees between the house and the alley, with the line running past all of them
- Excavation for a repair meaning the garden rather than the driveway
