Since I am from the south, we do not have basements. Something to do with being at or near sea level. I always figured that the basement would be properly sealed from water, guess I was wrong...

Thinking about it I guess sealing it off completely may not be a good idea. Down south we cannot drain a swimming pool copletely for fear the water in the ground will force it out, or crack it. I guess a basement could be viewed the same way. But at least the basement has a house sitting on it...

I hate half assed stuff, and a leaky basement sure sounds like a PITA.
