I’ve got about 8” in the newer part of my cellar. Fortunately the space is mostly unfinished but it was a mess and will be fun to clean up. Everything goes might be the ticket.

The $7K we spent on 2 separate, industrial sump pump setups paid for itself last night.
We used a company called Dry Basement Systems. Jackhammered the basement floor and put in 2, 4' cisterns, plumbed to PVC and run outside. One is at the bottom of the bulkhead. The other is in the basement of the new addition. There are commercial grade pumps in each cistern.

We could here both of them kicking on all night. Dry basement this morning. Not a drop of moisture.

Lost might be a better word. 25 years ago

Do they have a website? Places here are really backed up.

Hired a crew to do cleanup today. Cost a small fortune but it was worth it.

My issue is the driveway, which is like 30x50 in front of the garage, overwhelmed the drain pushing all the water to the foundation. Never seen this before. Needs a sump pit right there.
