[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to regrade the exterior and possibility dig up the foundation to seal. it is a BIG no no, there should never be water or even dampness in your basement.[/quote] It's not necessarily a big deal. If it is happening when it hasn't rained, then it may be ground water which is a big deal and requires a sump pump. But if it happens after rain storms it may just mean that the rain gutter need to be cleaned or adjusted. We had water in our house'so basement after it rained the very first day after we moved in (my wife gave me an earful about that), but fixing the gutters seemed to take care of the problem. [/quote]
