[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get a dehumidifier down there immediately before you have a mold problem!!!![/quote] We do - we had servpro out because of the we carpet issue and they are drying the entire basement. I’m just wondering what the potential cost and time to fix “water in the wall is” while I wait for an estimate…[/quote] You have to figure out where the water is coming from. If it's from rain, you do various storm water mitigations to keep the water away from the foundation: better gutters/downspouts, french drains, regrading, some use a sort of below-ground flashing around the foundation. If it's groundwater pushing in, that's a different sort of waterproofing. Resealing the foundation, drains/sump pumps, etc.[/quote]
