What drying runs into in Janesville
Serving Janesville and the surrounding area, including Courthouse Hill, Old Fourth Ward, Prospect Hill, Jefferson Avenue.
Local housing stock
The typical Janesville house dates to 1972, with about three quarters of the stock (72.7 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly early 1970s work. Around a median of 1972 with nearly three quarters of the stock older, much of the housing was built for workers at a single large employer, and when it closed the maintenance cycle on a great many houses stopped at once.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Janesville gets 37.43 inches a year with June heaviest at 4.99, and the drying season runs from a 19.9-degree January to a 72.6-degree July; both figures recorded at AFTON - JANESVILLE WWTP, 4.2 miles away. June is the wettest month at 4.99 inches of a 37-inch year and five months average a low below freezing, so roofs and walls take heavy summer rain and a hard freeze; deferred work on that cycle compounds rather than holding steady.
How water losses tend to end in Janesville
- Maintenance stopped across a whole area at once, so the deterioration is synchronized
- Roofs and gutters past their life together, so failures arrive in numbers
- A pattern that is economic rather than physical, so the houses themselves are sound enough
