The moisture is coming into the home somehow. If it is not a plumbing
leak. Possible, but it does not sound likely, then I would would think rain
is your problem. You need to find the source and eliminate it (them). They
may not be near where you are seeing the results. Finding them can be
difficult sometimes. Someone with experience is more likely to be able to
find them.

Good Luck


What I would like to know is how long does it take for concrete to dry out if
receives no water from outside source.

About a week ago the downsprout was sweating but a day later it warmed outside it
is it not moist anymore.
