In need of some recommendations - cement
Thanks to the Nor'easter we now have some water leaking into our basement. Nothing crazy - nothing to have to actually drain but a small section of one wall is clearly wet and so there has to be some crack or something...exactly what we need with a baby on the way.
So...I was wondering if there were any recommendations for:
1. Someone to take a look at the foundation wall to identify why the water came in.
2. Cement company - we need to re-cement the driveway and put cement all along the house to hopefully prevent any further problems (once we fix the existing) in the basement.
For the cement - the driveway is about 60x10 so if anyone has any recommendations of companies they used and maybe can FM or post some prices I would really appreciate it!

Re: In need of some recommendations - cement
Do you plan on doing a total ripout and replacement of the driveway?

The current driveway is basically two strips with grass in the middle. DH will break it up and remove...which will hopefully save some money but then we need to have someone lay new concrete the entire width.

Re: In need of some recommendations - cement
I can see if my uncle does cement - I know he does pavers but let me call them and I'll let you know.
Here is their website just in case you want to see:
