Its mix of hilly terrain, with peaks over 1,000 ft, and low-lying valleys along the Delaware, Raritan, and Musconetcong Rivers creates unpredictable water flow and rising groundwater scenarios that can flood homes and basements.
Many homes, especially historic farmhouses in Clinton or Hampden Township, and original mill-era structures in Lambertville, were built before modern drainage standards, leaving them susceptible to water intrusion. Even newer builds on floodplain edges risk seepage during spring thaws or torrential summer rains.
United Waterproofing’s patent-pending waterproofing process intercepts water before it ever reaches your basement.
Combining high-capacity pumps, perforated “fast-flow” piping, and materials engineered for corrosion- and freeze-resistance, our system is built for Hunterdon’s unique geology and weather extremes.
Hunterdon isn’t immune to flooding; Hurricane Ida’s lingering rains caused catastrophic road washouts and hundreds of emergency water rescues, particularly along waterways like the Neshanic River, Swan Creek, and Pleasant Run.
While only a small percentage (~1.5%) of residents live in FEMA-defined floodplains, flood risk in upper valleys is significant.
Leaving your basement vulnerable to flooding and any moisture intrusion can lead to:
Most standard sump systems fail when rainfall overwhelms or power fails–just when you need it most. United Waterproofing engineered a better option and has even submitted it for a patent. Here’s how it works:
