[quote=Anonymous]Drainage issues can mean full on flooding or something much smaller. Bought a house from the 1950s. Moisture in basement upon inspection but no actual leaks. Fix was remediate mold (paid for by seller). Then, extended downspouts. Dig out one underground downspout and replaced with stronger PVC and redirected. Very minimal regrading next to one side of house where dirt eroded. Then added rocks to slow water absorption. Any basement in the metropolitan area will require a dehumidifier. Other than the mold remediation, this was not very expensive. However, if the problem were full on flooding or the house on a downgrade from a lot of other properties I would definitely pass. Before I started this project I got 5 estimates which were wildly different. Not everything is a $30,000 problem despite what people tell you. [/quote]
