The St. Louis county, Missouri and St. Charles county, Missouri areas are having the wettest spring in recorded history. If your basement is ever going to leak, now is probably when it will do it.
If you're trying to sell your home (and even if you're not), make sure the sump pump is working.
Also, make sure your gutters and downspouts are draining properly - not filled with debris from nearby trees. Make sure the water runs away from your home and doesn't collect in a pool near the foundation.
If you have any of these issues, this is a good time to have it rectified.
