Hey everyone,
I've been gone from my basement apartment for a few weeks and just returned to see my room has some sort of leak on floor level...half of my carpet is soaked (probably no more than a half an inch of rainwater came in)...I'm assuming it's from rainwater that seeped through from the few times it rained while I was gone. I have a bunch of equipment and electronics (computer, keyboard, speakers, guitars, effects pedals, mics, etc.) in the room. All of the stuff is elevated at least a few feet off of the ground and out of reach of the water....most of it is in boxes, but some of it isn't (computer, piano). Should I be at all worried? The other few times it happened I wasn't away for weeks so I was able to soak up the water right away, but this time I'm more worried since some of this water has probably been here for over a week....I started running my dehumidifier immediately..let me know what you guys think.
