Unfortunately for those of us with rather old houses or poorly built foundations, yesterday was the day that the snow melt seeped into our basements. My house was build in 1908 and consequently the foundation has a few defects. Hence, this morning I woke up to a basement filled with water which had soaked into the carpets. I am running dehumidifiers and fans to deal with the water, but ultimately I am going to have to invest in some water abatement or basement water fixes.

While there are many companies promising basement water fixes, a simple tile job with a few sump pumps is not enough. What I really need is a full blown water removal and humidity solution to ensure that mold doesn’t overtake the crevices in the concrete and the walls.
