if you have a reputable water proofing company do the job, wait 6
months or a year to make certain all is well and remodel.....


....and if it was the first time in ten years the basement flooded?

well lets assume you have a water problem after that. thats what
homeowners insurance is for make certain it covers water inflatration.


Does yours? Homeowners insurance doesn't cover "rising water". Flood
insurance is required. More reasons to move.

if you then get water damage make a claim with your homeowners
insurance and they will take care of it and duke it out with the
waterproofing company.


You're clueless.

theres very little for the homeowner to do to with basement
waterproofing, hire a good company and sign the check when they are
done, many will move the stuff in your basement for free to get the
job.......


You missed the part about waiting for the next flood.

they should be expersts and know what to do if something wierd comes
up.


Sure they do; take more money.
