this ^ install interior drains and a sump pump and pump it out to the yard or the road....thats the cheapest way to do it cut a hole in the concrete, dig hole, drop sump pit into it cut floor out around perimeter of basement, install interior drains and run to sump pit, back fill and repair floor then when water comes up from under the foundation it will go into the pipes and run into the sump pit to be pumped out just run pvc out of the sump pump and up to ground level, punch hole in block and run it outside, bury it and run it out to a yard drain or run it to the curb and through the curb (check for permits needed if you drill into the curb) to pump into the road...repair block with mortar interior drains will solve your problems of water on the floor, and a dehumidifier will help with the moisture all you will need is a concrete saw, small jack hammer, and a hammer drill....and of course, a shovel or tiny excavator for running the yard drain.....and rent a small concrete mixer for repairing the floor....in fact, i think you could probably rent all of those tools

glad we agree on something so?

lol reminds me of a guy in my high school who got shot with a rubber bullet during senior tag for creeping around the bushes with a squirt gun that resembled a real shotgun

your floor drain should run to your sump pump - not your sewer we have seen great results with basement waterproofing with only using interior floor drains. i would go out on a limb and say its the most common job done to repair water in basements - because of the price difference. if its all you can afford to get done, go for it. it will be better than not having them. call a place and get an estimate for interior waterproofing....they will run interior drains for you. then just pick up a dehumidifier and attach a hose to it and run it into your sump pit or drain. thats how i would do it on a budget if it was my house and digging out and re-tarring wasnt an option

similar thing happened to a friend and i...we paid like $25 cash, put the pump on auto and werent paying attention...turned around and it was at like $39 and pumping...we were in HS and neither of us has any extra cash to make up the difference, and we were pretty stoned at the time...we just took off how does that work? can you get in trouble for stealing, even though you pre-paid and it was the clerks fault? we didnt have the money to go back in and make up the difference since we only asked for 25

way to be a douche. dui, swerving, etc? sure, whatever. speeding? give me a break.

and for the foundation....dig it down, tar it, add visqueen, put in drain tiles, back fill the bottom 2-3 ft with gravel and then dirt over it no need for rubber or anything like that.... go to lowes and buy black roofing tar...get a bucket with fiber, and a bucket of non fiber...mix them 50/50, you will get a great consistency for sealing up block...lay the tar thick and even and then put the visqueen over it for extra protection it is a fairly big job...be careful running the excavator, its not exactly "hard" but its a lot of work ....theres a reason everdry charges so much lol i do believe everdry digs down to the foundation, tars and seals it, and then an interior drain.....do they run exterior drain also? i work with a guy who used to waterproof for them and he was always bitching about hauling gravel out of the basement where they busted up the floors to run the interior drains

also - depending how old your house is, if you dig all the way down to the bottom of the foundation, i highly recommend replacing some of your sewer pipe where the 4" metal comes out of the house into the 6" clay tile.... cut it off at the 4" and add a 6" cleanout...this will allow you to get fullsize cutters in it in the future if you ever run into a problem...without a cleanout, or with a 4" like new homes have, you cannot run a 6" cutter (your sewer pipes are 6" on the outside of the house)....makes it hard to snake a 6" line with a 4" cutter and expect results

one other thing about calling before you dig - when you call make sure to ask what all theyre marking...not sure how it is up there but in franklin county OUPS doesnt mark water, just gas....make sure theres markings for water, gas, and electric if its not overhead...theres keys out there to tell you which color paint means what we almost smashed a 8" main water line awhile back because we thought it ran behind the house since we didnt see any markings for it....then we found it while digging after we gave it a love tap with the trackho teeth....called OUPS and they said they dont mark water in franklin county (the city of columbus does however, so like i said, it depends where youre at...so ask when you call)

this is a big no no...you dont run that into a sewer...you either run it out into the yard or pump it into the street where it runs into a storm drain not to mention theres no way to run an outside drain into the sewer without some redneck rigged up setup running pipes into a sewer cleanout or something since sewers are generally 6-10 ft underground ....but i have come across a job where these people made a room addition with a sump pump in it and run it directly into their sewer pipes inside of their house...what a mess...the city called us out to un-fuck it, we had to cap off the sewer and run the sump pump out to the road their hose bib cracked in the winter and caused a ton of water to spill around the foundation....they didnt cap the sump pit and dryer lint got into it and plugged up the sump pump....once the sump pump stopped working the water built up and flooded the basement....showed up to drain basement and install new pump only to realize their whole system had to be re-run

oh, and the other show is better...stephanie would still get it majorly, but i bet that paige girl is a screamer....dont care if shes 17 or not - i would give it to her fo' sho'

dont buy a used stunt bike unless you plan to stunt it also...for all the money in repair and maintenance you put in it, you will have spent enough for a nicer and newer bike stunt bikes get whooped.... heres a friend of mines low mileage 07 gsxr really? its too new to look that way lol...i wouldnt touch a stunt bike, unless i was looking to stunt it myself

i fucking love you joel

not me! what kind of fucking idiot discharges their gun into the open air for it to land anywhere? he couldnt have taken a shot at the ground 15 feet in front of him or something? apologize and get a break? how would you feel if it was your daughter or sister? i know if it was me i would want them to throw the book at this idiot ....people that stupid shouldnt be out on the streets with normal people

damnit - i missed all of his replies before he deleted them i miss you jcroz buddy, you da man

fucking bowdog - hes as bad as MT

in my single cab pickup i leave the bolt open, in the bag, and behind my seat...ammo on the passenger side floor board...is that wrong, since its not plain sight?

yea forgot about rooted phones...hell, i play xbox live through my phones connection when i dog sit for my grandma when she goes out of town lol

refreshing to see such a reputable shop that takes on bikes older than 7 years

i never had water get in my shoei - through the shield or through the vents (im sure it got in the vents, but it never made it to my head/face)

damn, no need for a 3g one at all IMO lol...unless you got the fire for apps

do you have to be in a wifi spot to read, or just to browse? can you download and read anywhere, then delete and download new books once youre in a wifi spot?
