the basement has always been damp but during recent heavy rains it flooded. Had to pump out many inches of water daily for over a week. Believe we need to install sump well and pump. Have looked for instructions on net but dont find any on my level.
Believe I need hole in cement floor approx 18" sq and about 30-40" deep. There is to be a liner or tub in the hole --- from there I am without guidance.
Can someone tell me how to prepare the hole and the liner to best drain the soil around the basement. The house is over 30 yr old and french drains are both expensive and a lot of mess.
Thanks
