Hello again my trusted cyber experts....
I have an unfinished basement in a home built in 1952. I plan on gutting all but the concrete floor.
There are clay tiles that run under the concrete. Water trickles through these tiles pretty much year round with the exception of some cold winter moths.
I plan on having a new weeping system installed and a waterproofing performed on the outside perimeter of the building. After this is done is there a chance water will enter and sit in the existing clay tiles? Do I need to crush the tiles under the concrete floor?
I'm worried about mildew and mould after a finished floor is installed.
