Wayne Township is one of Passaic County’s largest municipalities by area, combining suburban neighborhoods with close to a dozen parks and reservoirs.
Originally, large swaths of farmland, Wayne Township developed rapidly in the 19th and 20th centuries, particularly along the Passaic River and near High Mountain, a historically significant landmark.
Today, Wayne Township features a mix of historic homes, modern subdivisions, and natural areas like Packanack Lake, Pompton Lakes, and Laurelwood Arboretum.
While Wayne Township’s natural beauty is part of its charm, the township’s geography presents ongoing challenges for basements and foundations.
With an average of 49 inches of rainfall and 24 inches of snow per year, plus clay soil and hillsides in certain neighborhoods, homes can experience water intrusion, foundation shifting, and structural stress year-round.
Older homes near Packanack Lake and Pompton Plains often have stone or block foundations that predate modern drainage standards, while newer subdivisions in the Willowbrook or Westbelt areas may still be affected by heavy storms, spring runoff, or saturated soils.
United Waterproofing installs a patent-pending waterproofing and foundation repair system designed specifically for Wayne Township homes, keeping basements dry and foundations stable.
In Wayne Township, one of the most common hidden threats is soil expansion and contraction. Clay and silty soils expand when wet and shrink during dry periods, exerting pressure on basement walls and footings. Over time, this can lead to:
Even minor water or soil movement issues can escalate quickly, making early intervention with a professional waterproofing and foundation repair system essential.
