I keep every thing in the garage up on pallets, since I get water in the north side. Dog's hate it, I hate it, but not worth the trouble to fix.

A lot of the problem too is that whoever poured the foundation didnt make it level.

First thing to determine is "Where is the water comin from?"

Well, my floor isnt even, and the water comes under the wall all along that side. Theres no hole, it just seeps between the boards and foundation, then gathers at the wall.

My parents garage use to flood every time is rained, there is a drain right at the bottom on the hill where the water should run. There never used to the gully thing between the tarmac and garage foundation so the water would just run down the driveway and build up against the door and would just pour right over it.
One time I was hosting a mini lan party and the water decided to attack. Luckily we got the 3 computers, the server and all the cables before the watch got to them. The entire garage floor was under about 1.5 inch of water. I took 2 hours to get most of it out and like 6 weeks to fully dry out.
Since my dad and I put the gully thing in, its never flooded and its unlikely to ever flood again.

March 2nd 2013, 5:36 pm Yea like I said this late spring, ill probably dig out along the edge of the foundation and buy 6 bags of Quickrete and make a concrete gutter. Flooding every year is ridiculous and I would rather not have water all over my equipment.
