What drying runs into in Newburgh
Serving Newburgh and the surrounding area, including East End, Montgomery-Grand-Liberty Streets.
Local housing stock
The typical Newburgh house dates to 1938, with close to nine in ten of the stock (91.2 percent) built before 1990, so the assemblies that get wet are mostly late 1930s work. Around a median of 1938 with more than nine in ten houses older, the houses were built with a raised basement carried well above the outside ground and the main floor reached by a stoop, which was the ordinary form here.
Climate & seasonal risk
A normal year here delivers 49.16 inches, 4.91 of them in August, against a warm season that peaks at 73 degrees in July; rain recorded at BEACON 4.2 ESE 6.8 miles away and temperatures at WALDEN 1 ESE 8.1 miles away. With five months averaging a low below freezing and January lows near sixteen degrees, the exposed part of the basement wall is above the frost line and out in the weather, taking the freeze directly rather than being insulated by the soil.
How water losses tend to end in Newburgh
- Basement wall exposed above ground, so a large area of masonry is in the weather
- Freeze acting on the exposed face, so the mortar there deteriorates faster than below grade
- A stoop bearing on that wall, so the steps and the wall move against each other
