Water is not properly diverted away from the home. Water enters basement from seam between first floor and basement, trickling indoors alongside the foundation. We are told we need a grading diverting the water away from the home.

Basement flooding may not cause structural danger to your property. But you will suffer damage to your furniture and other stored items that you have in your basement. If you have cherished photographs, mementos, a wedding dress or some keepsake stored in your basement, the losses can be enormous in emotional value. Basement leaks are luckily easier to detect, and manifest themselves as stains on the floors or walls, that are easy to diagnose.
Mold and mildew are dead giveaways, and are easy to spot. If you've noticed that musty odor that's typical of mold formation in your basement, begin looking for the growth immediately. Metal feet of furniture that are rusted, white patches on concrete walls, water stains on walls and floors, floor cracks with stains around them indicating water pressure -- theses are all signs of a water damage problem that could get ugly, if left untreated.
A sump pump can be a godsend when your basement gets flooded. Make sure that your sump pump is perfectly serviced, and is in mint condition. Nothing is worse than a sump pump that refuses to work just when you need it for basement drying. Most components of a sump have to be replaced within 10 years, and if your sump pump is older than that, replace it immediately.
