[quote=Anonymous]We had moisture issues (no visible water, but obvious humidity/moisture) seeping into the basement. During a larger renovation, we dug down and put in drain tiles, a Bituthene membrane and drain board (all exterior). We also put in an exterior sump pump, just in case. Since then, basement is dry and not humid. An independent structural PE we hired - and our licensed Architect - both agreed this was the only way to completely solve the problem. We later learned a neighbor had similar issues. They had put in an interior drain, which was lower cost and mitigated somewhat, but did not really -solve- the problem. YMMV. [/quote]
