Frequently asked questions
The house is from the 1990s. Why would the basement still wet?
Drains need somewhere to go. Till perches June rain, the tile around the footing collects it, and the storm sewer or ditch that tile dumps into is already full. A new basement with a drowned outlet behaves like an old basement with no tile. The era fixed the wall; it did not fix the till.
The yard is mounded away from the house. Is that enough on this soil?
For surface water, usually. For perched water in the till, no. Mounding sends roof water off the slab edge and does nothing to the water already in the soil at footing depth. That is why a perfect grade and a wet wall can coexist here after June cells.
A finished lower level changed the stakes. How?
Carpet, drywall, and furniture sit in a room that older houses left as utility space. The same seepage that would have been a mop job is now a finish-out. Sump battery backup is doing more work in this stock than in a 1950s cellar, because the contents are different.
