Corner problems

[Dee A]

My home is a split level ranch so we actually live in our basement. I do not have a sump pump. I get water coming in each of the four corners of my basement and only when it rains. No other part of the basement gets wet. And these corners only get a small area on the carpet wet. I know I need help, but I am not sure what to do.

Many times when water leaks in the basement only in the corners it is usually because the downspouts are not diverted away from the foundation. You may try to add pipes diverting the water from the downspouts and see if that helps. Pioneer Basement Systems offers a great solution for this problem. Check out our products section and look at RainChutes. You may even order them online and have them shipped to your door. Hope this helps.
