Can we assume your gutters and downspouts, etc., are all working and
correctly placed?

I don't have an answer but I have a similar problem in my house and
wondering if I can get suggestions on how to fix. My house was built
in 2002. When it rains really heavy outside I notice a puddle of water
on the basement floor. I have concluded that the water is leaking in
where the sewage pipe goes through the foundation and out to the
street. I have found a couple of people talking about this problem,
one person said to seal it from the inside, another said you need to
dig outside to where the pipe leaves the founadation and cover with a
tar product. Whats the way to solve this problem? Is this something a
plumber could repair?

Just get a spade and digg it up , use hydraulk water block cement on any
cracks and tar the hell out of it...Friggin around inside is a waste of time
and money....
