I am interested in buying a basement apartment that has not been occupied for
30 years. There are two holes dug in the ground; these holes are half full with
water. I am told by the auctioneer that the water-table is the cause of this
problem. The auctioneer insists that the floor can be "tanked", and
that this will solve the problem. I know that the floor is damp but the walls
are not. I have heard of a product called "Sani-Tred" (http://www.sanitred.com)
that is a waterproofing sealant. Is it possible to solve the problem using this
(or a similar product)? Is it possible to solve the problem at all? And if so,
what is the best method?
