High water tableFrom: ghanna74@comcast.net Category: Foundations and Basements Remote Name: 67.163.43.187 Date: 21 Apr 2004 Time: 05:40 PM
CommentsHi, I have found a lot to build a new home with a basement. The lot is in Palatine, Illinois. My problem has to do with the high water table. I was told by the engineer, who performed the soil test 3 yrs. ago, that the water was 2 ft down till about 10 ft.
My question is can I still build and if so, what will I need to do, and what extra expenses will I be looking at as far as drainage during excavation and water proofing the basement.
Thank you!!
