Okay, leaky basements, the bane of every homeowner's existence! So, you're thinking sump pump, huh? Moisture's a nasty beast; believe me, I know. Is your foundation weeping or just a little damp? Consider drainage too. A sump pump might indeed be your solution; it's definitely worth exploring. I had a similar issue years ago with pooling water around my house after storms; drainage correction with a French drain proved to be my Block Breaker!
