Frequently asked questions
The basement is wet on a sunny day when the tide is high. Related?
On the filled waterfront, yes. Fill behind a bulkhead is porous to the river, and a basement there is a hole in that fill. Storms matter too, but a sunny high tide is the signature that the water is the Hudson, not a rain leader.
We are up on the Heights, not on the water. Same city, same problem?
Same city, different water. The Heights are a slope of row houses, and the wetting path is the address above you, not the tide. A stain on an uphill party wall in Hamilton Park is a roof or a gutter, not the Hudson.
A tower on the waterfront drips from a window head. Open the wall?
Start at the window. Curtain-wall and punch-window details on these towers fail at the head flashing, and the water then travels in the cavity to a unit that is not the one with the bad window. The wet ceiling is the exit. The source is often a floor above and a room over.
