I have standing water on basement floor every time it rains. one room can get ankle deep while the other rooms just have noticeable moister on the floor. My plan is to cut the concrete floor 18" away from the wall all the way around my basement, dig a trench and install 4" perforated pipe next to the footer, drill weep holes in all the blocks and joints, fill trench with gravel, install the miradrain, and pour the concrete back. I have approximately 160' of trenching to do and plan on installing 2 sump pits on opposite corners of the house. Does this sound correct? How I see it in my mind is the 4" pipe will connect into one pit, make a long run around the perimeter of the house and connect into the 2nd sump pit? I have never done this before, but was quoted $19K for a BS system that sits onto of the footer. I think I can do this myself for $2500 and my time.
Thanks
