Basement wall repair leakage?

John Salgado

Posted

I am currently under contract with my first property multi-unit and am trying to figure out the problem and expected costs for the attached image.  I do understand that the best approach is to get a contractor/basement specialist, but I am just trying to understand ahead of time so I have a better sense/conversation with the guy.  There is evident of mold/rot in other areas of the basement, but was all dry.  Unfortunately I didnt have the home inspection when it was raining...

Is this a french drain type of repair?  Or just an old wall that needs to be remediated by replacing the cinder block walls?

What is your experience with leaky basements?
