Local housing stock
Ask when the houses in Williamsburg were built and the answer is 1987 at the median, 55.5 percent of them finished by 1990. Around a median of 1987 with over half the stock older, this housing was built in the colonial manner the town requires of itself, which puts a pair of decorative shutters beside every window, fixed hard against the cladding rather than hung to close.
Climate & seasonal risk
July brings 5.92 of the 51.24 inches Williamsburg sees in a normal year, and July averages 79.3 degrees, which is the pace a wet floor dries at in the warm season; both figures recorded at WILLIAMSBURG 2 N, 2.2 miles away. July is the wettest month at 5.92 inches of a 51.24-inch year and two months average lows below freezing, so the wall is wetted through a long humid season; a panel held tight against siding in that climate keeps the boards behind it from ever drying.
How water losses tend to end in Williamsburg
- Cladding kept permanently damp behind a fixed panel
- Fastenings driven through the siding into the sheathing at every shutter
- Decay hidden entirely, since the affected area is the one part of the wall nobody sees
