Diagnose Water Infiltration & Plan Exterior Drainage

Feel like I've been hurting cats all morning. >> But that's rained out cuz it's on the side of a hill that is like this. And when you get any rain on that kind of slope. This woman had negative pitch all the way around her house getting wet in the basement toing to the bottom. [Music] [Applause] [Music] All right. Good day, everybody. I didn't get a chance to do a walk through before we started tearing apart everything, but it it we're bringing the grade up around the house cuz they're having massive water issues in the basement. And this is getting dirt. And then this is getting all trimmed up and getting dirt behind it. bringing the grade up around the house a little bit. It it this was all in mulch. Then we took all that out, but this is also coming up a bit in here. A lot of the water is running through here and washing out around here. So, we're going to try and at least fix it so it's not going to flow towards the house. At least it's blowing away from the house. As you can see, we brought in a lot of dirt already. Yeah. Bringing it up. Our customer had a wet basement. And with every wet basement we come into, we always have three basic solutions. And we always go from the least invasive to the most invasive because those also line up with the expense of the project. Now, if you were my customer and you had a wet basement, the first thing I would say is grading is the least intrusive.
