No wonder the basement leaked.

Mom and Dad's basement leaks when it rains hard.

And it's only got one drain. Up in the front.

So when it leaks, you have to go to the back of the basement and sweep the water to the front to the drain.

I've tried to get Dad to cut a trench around the edge of the wall and let it come to the front of the basement, or put in a sump pump.

I figure this is the only place in the basement that has that "Hole" as the rest is fully carpeted. Except for the bathroom that shares a (The) wall with the furnace room.

In a way this might be a blessing.  We have a neighbor, that one time it rained so hard that his basement actually buckled enough to raise up about three inches or so and busted!  We helped him put in a second sump pump (in the same hole) and that finally took care of all the water.
