What drying runs into in Newark
Serving Newark and the surrounding area, including Gregory Park, Hudson Avenue Historic District.
Local housing stock
79.1 percent of Newark's housing was standing before 1990, around a median build year of 1963, and that era decides what a contractor finds once the drywall is off. The median house dates to 1963 and nearly four in five predate 1990, frame over poured or block basements with some crawl-space construction, so the wet material is commonly the basement stair, the framed partitions and the underfloor insulation.
Climate & seasonal risk
On the 1991–2020 normals, Newark gets 43.4 inches a year with June heaviest at 4.69, and the drying season runs from a 27.3-degree January to a 72.6-degree July; both figures recorded at NEWARK WTR WKS, 1.3 miles away. June is the wettest month at 4.69 inches and the year totals 43.4, with five months below freezing and January lows near 18 degrees, so summer brings the water from outside and winter brings it from split lines inside.
How water losses tend to end in Newark
- Underfloor insulation in crawl spaces holding water against the subfloor, so it is pulled rather than dried
- Basement stairs and stringers absorbing water where they meet the slab
- Crawl-space soil staying damp after a loss, feeding moisture back into the floor above
