So as a side bonus from all the rain we've gotten this year, I've discovered that our basement bedroom is flooding now. During heavy rains the window well fills up, and if we don't bucket it out water will start leaking through the window. But the worst part is that even if the window well doesn't overflow, water is coming up from beneath the floor boards along that exterior wall. I've also spotted mold forming along the floorboard joints and the lower drywall. I've already got a claim into the insurance company, but I have no idea what comes next or what kind of mitigation I should do in the mean time. Anyone else suffered through something like this?
