I didn't think I'd need a sump pump.
did a lot of prep work extending downspouts and making sure leaves out of gutters.
ground is saturated
My mancave fishing room got flooded too as the rest of the basement, 2" in some spots.
I'll have to cut bottom of sheetrock off and spray bottom plates with bleach but first I am gonna have to store all my fishing gear and take plugs off the walls and remove all the built-ins, then I'll just cut off the bases and re-work them with pressure treated or Azek. New rock will be durarock. then reinstall cabinetry. Any other wood is gonna have to be treated or replaced.
Thanks to my best friend he brought me a small pump that uses a garden hose, been running since 1:30 and it is managing to keep up.
what a big pain in the arse.
22 years here also Joe, and never had water.
had water coming thru cracks that have always been dry.
gonna have to do a major cellar clean out job once the water is gone
no more rain
no more rain
no more rain
I feel for those who have 6" or more in their basements as that is gonna do some serious damage
