Local housing stock
About half of the housing here predates 1990 — 46.7 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1992. Frame and brick on full basements, a 1992 median, and just under half the units standing before 1990, much of it 1990s stock with drain tile that still has to discharge toward a canal that is already high in May.
Climate & seasonal risk
May is the wettest month here at 4.81 inches, part of an annual 41.14 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from ROMEOVILLE WFO, 2.5 miles off. May's 4.81 inches of a 41.14 inch year arrives as spring convection on ground that snowmelt has already filled. The Des Plaines and the canal set a local water table with almost no spare fall, so a basement that is eight feet down is not far above that table when May is wet, and tile that drains toward the canal stops working the hour the canal is up.
Common moisture and mold problems in Crest Hill
- Canal-level groundwater sitting near basement floors through a wet May
- 1990s drain tile that discharges toward a canal already too high to take it
- Till along the Des Plaines holding spring rain against foundation walls for days
- Window wells on the canal side of a lot filling because there is no lower place for May rain to go
