Local housing stock
The median home in Appleton dates to 1971, and 76.8 percent of the stock was already standing when the 1990s began. Mid-century and older housing over full basements sits on thin soil over dolomite in much of the city. Fractured dolomite transmits water readily along joints and bedding planes, so a basement cut into it can receive water through the rock itself rather than through the soil around it.
Climate & seasonal risk
Appleton averages 33.15 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at APPLETON 2.5 miles away, with June the wettest month at 4.65 inches. June brings the wettest month to ground where the soil cover is shallow and the rock beneath is fractured. Rain that soaks through the thin cover enters the joint system and moves quickly along it, arriving at excavations from directions and distances that the surface gives no hint of.
Common water damage problems in Appleton
- Fractured dolomite transmitting water rapidly along joints, bypassing the soil entirely
- Thin soil cover with very little storage before water reaches the rock
- Basements excavated into rock, receiving water through the excavation face
- A long freezing season with deep frost acting on soil that entered winter saturated
