Again, I can't thank you enough!!

Hope you do get it taken care of,,,it's a headache for sure and if the insurance is fixing it that's a bonus. As far as the brother saying it isn't hydrostatic pressure,,,respectfully I disagree because I went thru this and esp. in a clay laden area the water has to go somewhere and when water is present in the water table hydrostatic pressure IS present. Epoxy in some cases is the fix but it takes a very capable company to ensure the right fix and nobody knows until they have been there onsite to see what is going on. Bottom line is you are having it taken care of by the insurance and you will be able to have recourse if it isn't fixed right the first time. Good Luck!
