Damp buildings in Winter Springs

From an air handler dripping into a ceiling to a slab that stays damp, one call anywhere in Winter Springs connects you with a local pro working the area. Winter Springs falls from about 76 feet in its rolling southeast to three or four feet above sea level at Lake Jesup's south shore.

What the homes date from

1989 is the median build year in Winter Springs, and 53.3 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. Incorporated in 1959 as North Orlando, with no more than 600 residents, the city has filled in with suburban neighborhoods since the 1970s, and where one of those houses sits on a slab, the water table the city describes rising through the rainy season comes up close beneath it.

The months that matter

The air over Winter Springs carries the most water in August, when the normal dewpoint reaches 74.4 degrees, and in July and August it does not drop below 70 even overnight; June brings 8.19 of the 49.63 inches a year, both figures recorded 6.5 miles away. By June the rainy season has begun, and the city's own flood guidance puts most standing water at times when the groundwater table is near the surface, so a downpour that a retention pond or swale would usually take in sits on yards and slab edges instead.

The usual sources here

  • Slabs of the suburban houses built since the 1970s, resting on ground whose water table the city says comes near the surface in the rainy season
  • Retention ponds and swales meant to let stormwater soak away, slower to empty once the rainy season has lifted the groundwater beneath them
  • Drain fields at some 391 homes with septic systems on record, left with little dry soil below them when the season's groundwater rises from beneath
  • Low ground on the Lake Jesup shore, three or four feet above sea level, where the creeks carrying the city's runoff meet the lake

Frequently asked questions

When does standing water show up in a Winter Springs yard?

Mostly in the rainy season. The city's flood information notes that most shallow flooding and standing water happen when the groundwater table is near the surface, during the rainy season or after many rain events. With the ground already full from below, a June downpour spreads across the yard instead of soaking in, and the edge of a slab and the bottom of a wall sit in it longest.

How far above Lake Jesup does Winter Springs stand?

The city lies on the south shore of Lake Jesup, and its ground runs from about 76 feet above sea level in the undulating southeast to three or four feet at the lake's edge. The several creeks in the city all carry its runoff to the lake. Houses toward the shore sit on the lowest land, where that runoff arrives last on its way out.

What does a high water table mean for a Winter Springs septic system?

Some 391 homes in the city have septic systems on record. A drain field works by letting water sink into the soil beneath it, and the city notes that the groundwater table comes near the surface in the rainy season. When it does, the field has little dry soil left below, and after a run of June storms household water can rise back toward the lowest drain.
