So being a 'basement' floor of the house, the ceilings weren't as high as we would like them. The floor was dug down a foot by hand, into a bucket, into a truck and then dumped offsite. This took our nephew Jason less than a month and amazed us as well as others who have done the same thing and taken a LOT longer - What a worker. We started getting water at the back of the house and couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Until one day Jason dug down where there is an indentation in the wall and lo and behold he found a well. Yup, a well, inside the house. We were not sure where that left us but after talking to people and calling the plumber it's going to be ok. We will fill it in with gravel and incorporate int into the weeping tile system. It's been quite a topic of conversation! And you know in all those horror movies it always had something to do with the well in the basement.
With floor dug down the place looked great - imagine what I'll think when its done ;o)
