| Front Door Steps | Sign In/Join |
My front door steps are located directly over the basement. Every time it rains, water weeps down the wall and drips off of the 2X4s holding the cement steps up. I haven't seen any HGTV remodels or repairs on an issue like this. I would like to get maint. free decking, but still don't know how to seal off the basement from leakage. As an unemployed, disabled Vet living on 70% disability I need the cheapest and easiest way to fix this, as the foundation in the area is beginning to falter. | |||
