Argghh! Few things are less fun than a flooded basement still flooding, and I'd rather not think about those things, thank you very much!

Once you do get the water out, make plans in the spring to look at your landscaping outside. Odds are that the ground slopes toward the house, which tends to help the water congregate next to the walls and leak in. Build it up so it slopes away, and you'll have less water to contend with.

And obviously, patching those holes is going to be an important task as well. Just pretend every time you're doing it, you're burying a body part of the person who drilled them in the first place [img]smile.gif[/img] It might help...

My sympathies.
