Hi, I hope someone can help me with this. We moved into our newly remodeled home just over 2 years ago. For some odd reason, the person that remodeled the house had the driveway poured sloping toward the house. Now we all know where the water is going. The driveway meets up with the foundation and he put small bricks on top of the driveway right next to the foundation. We also have 2 metal window wells for the basement windows that the driveway was poured around.
The question I have is this. Is there anything out there that we can use to seal around the window wells and where the driveway meets the foundation? Something that will expand and contract with the changing weather in Michigan?
Also, since the water likes to pool near the house on the driveway. What would be the best way to evacuate the water away from the house? It's a long stretch from there to either the front or back yards and on the other side of the driveway is the neighbor's yard.
Thanks for the help.
