Hi everyone - I am new here!
I moved into my home one year ago; I live in Northern New Jersey. My basement is fairly large. There is one spot on the floor right at the wall/floor seam. This is the ONLY spot where it gets wet. It is right underneath where the front steps are. This pic was taken today and it hasn't (really) rained in a few weeks. I don't think there is any plumbing in this area; the water main is quite a ways (at least 25 feet) to the to the right; and the entry point for the water main is about one foot from the floor. I have an underground sprinkler system; but I don't believe there are any lines anywhere near the wet spot. I raised the pitch in front of the house near that side of the steps and water hasn't pooled up there in at least 10 months. Any thoughts on what might be going on?
Thanks!
Mike
