Basement flooding had turned this unfinished basement into a space that could no longer be used. Instead of relying on this extra space for storage and laundry, this homeowner avoided the basement as much as possible. After a storm, the homeowner went to the basement to check on the sump pump. The sump pump was not working at all and started to cause muddy puddles on the floor. She knew she needed a better sump pump and waterproofing system to keep puddles from happening in her basement.
