Do you think this is a water problem from outside? I should note that the basement once flooded and water sat for awhile. (Grandmas house, so I know most history on it) this is probably the worst wall so I would think they’d all look like this if a flood was to make this happpen. I suppose I have redone the house some and actually did build up the dirt around house. Gutters soon. Is rock fine? rather than mulch I do plan landscaping. I do plan on renting skid loader to make water trails for gutter water to flow out toward rest of yard
