Clogged Weeping Tiles? What's the best way to repair?

Kathryn

We have had a leaking basement fixed, but it still leaks in the corner. The company is saying our tiles are clogged and they have to clear them out down the whole side of the house. Does anyone know if this is the best way to repair this or should they be replaced? Has anyone discovered there is an easier fix?

    Are you saying you have a tile drain outside your foundation that is clogged?

    I would continue to spray with a solution of chlorine & water to keep bacteria & mildew away first

    I would continue to call the company that made the repair; any warranty? The squeaky wheel gets the oil.


    Tell them if they don't make the repair, a sign will go in your yard and on line to discredit their (good) ? name.

    Thank you for the input. They did warn us that they'd have to come back to repair. Apparently the mud they cleared out was getting clogged in the weeping tiles. they seem like a good company, but we are getting a second opinion on Wednesday. Wish us luck.
