Reply to comment by NotWorthTheTimeX in What Causes Basement to Leak in Middle by Full-Cat5118

I think this likely true. There is one drain that is visible elsewhere in the basement, and I found a very small amount of dampness near it. I will just have to look harder for the sump pump. My guess is that this drain is likely closer to the sump pump and thus overflowing more. Does that make sense? Trying to decide where to start pulling up floor to keep it to the smallest amount possible.

Pulling up floor to look for the sump pump? If so, no need and just look for the discharge pipe. I’d be very surprised if they put flooring over a sump pump pit.
