Here in Moorhead/Fargo we are having flood issues again but I don't hink my water is from that.
I have lived here 5 years (house built 1950) (have 2 foot incline in back yard) and this is the 1st time I have seen water. My theory is I didn't clean gutters in
fall & rain collected near house.... not sure but...
For the last 6 days I have been shop-vacing every 1.5 hours. There is about 10x7 inch of water in one room east & other 2 rooms have water also. It rained yesterday & now its coming in faster.
There is a sump pump in north west corner that is working... that room is good. I do not have drain tile.
My question is... is there something I can do now to either stop the water from coming in or.... is there a pump type product etc that can sit on a flat floor & have a hose to the shower?
I am thankful the shop-vac im using has a built in water pump with hose to shower. I do plan on either puting in drain tile or building up angle near the house when we get things dried & out of basement. We took carpet out & have stuff piled in other room...
Thank you for ANY ideas!!! There are a lot of smart people here... so I thought to ask.
One more question.... when will it stop or at least slow down?
