Prevent water from entering into the basement or crawl space by making sure the ground slopes away from your home. Examine the foundation walls for low spots or holes and then fill in those areas with dirt. Check the ground slope with a level to confirm it is higher near the foundation, as to avoid water from pooling up and entering your home.

  • Why did your state county city allow a developer build in 1000 year flood plan without provisions to deal with water? The people have been demanding the government to not let devilment in flood zones for a long time. Did your gov take kick backs to let developers not grade the property to protect the citizens of the county/city?
