First question at the door: where is the water coming from?

Why a Florida building stays wet: the four things that set that clock, laid out once for the whole state.

How long a Odessa wall stays wet

Water in a ceiling, wall or slab in Odessa, from Odessa Woods and Angel Farms Estates across town, is one call away from a local restoration pro. Odessa's 2,985 homes include some 705 in buildings of ten or more units, where floors, ceilings and walls are shared between households.

The structures themselves

2006 is the median build year in Odessa, and 15.8 percent of the stock went up before 1990, an age that tends to settle whether the ductwork runs overhead through the attic or below the floor. Nearly one home in four here is in a building of ten or more units, and where a wood-framed building has upper balconies built over the rooms below, the balcony's waterproof deck is all that keeps rain out of the floor framing and the ceiling beneath, so a split at its edge or around a post lets each August storm into both.

Weather behind the risk

The normal dewpoint in Odessa stays at or above 70 degrees around the clock in July and August, reaching 75.2 in August; August is the wettest month, with 10.99 of 60.65 inches, rain recorded at GREATER NORTHDALE 0.4 ENE 5.7 miles away and dewpoint 15.2 miles away. Where a newer house has a pocketing slider that disappears into a cavity in the wall, rain blown against it through August, the wettest month, runs along the track into that pocket, where the framing and drywall beside it take the water out of sight.

What to check in Odessa

  • Balconies built over rooms in wood-framed buildings of ten or more units, where a split in the waterproof deck lets rain into the framing and ceiling below
  • Pocketing sliders on newer houses, where rain driven along the track runs into the wall cavity the door slides into
  • Drain fields packed hard by cars, boats or trailers parked over them, at any of the 447 homes with septic systems on record, taking August's rain slowly

Frequently asked questions

What stains the ceiling beneath an upstairs balcony in an Odessa apartment building?

Nearly one Odessa home in four is in a building of ten or more units. Where a wood-framed building has balconies built over the rooms below, the balcony's waterproof deck is the only thing keeping rain out of the floor framing. A split at its edge, a cracked joint or a gap around a railing post lets each August storm through, and the ceiling of the unit beneath shows it first.

Can rain get into the wall pocket of a sliding door in a newer Odessa house?

It can. A pocketing slider disappears into a cavity built into the wall beside the opening. Rain blown against the door in an August storm runs along the track, and where the track continues into the pocket, so does the water. The framing and drywall around that cavity take it out of sight. A track that drains outward, with a clear weep at its low end, keeps it out.

Does parking on the lawn hurt an Odessa drain field?

It can. Some 447 Odessa homes have septic systems on record, and a drain field works by letting water soak into loose soil. Cars, boats or trailers parked over the field pack that soil down, so it takes water slowly. In August, with the rain already filling the ground, the packed field backs the household's water up toward the lowest drain. Parking elsewhere lets the soil recover.
