    Re: Snake room in the basement?

    its kinda hard to tell. if i had to guess id say a valley but im high up in the valley. ive dug up a few yards around here a good 8' deep and didnt notice the ground to be too wet. dunno what it will be like under the house yet.



    i just noticed someone saying about i might have a drop/fake ceiling, this isnt the case. but i wish it were. back when i was first getting the loan for the house i had to remove all the old knob and tube wiring and rewire the whole house. lets just say the basement ceiling might have some hard feeling against me

    Re: Snake room in the basement?

    Your in for a job man. Good luck and can't wait to watch progress.. Take lots of pictures.

    Out here, I can dig 8-10 feet down and it will fill up with water.

    Our basement is 8 feet, the water table itself is only a few feet below that, every few years the water table makes a steep rise and the pumps run 24/7 to keep it off my floor.

    I'm still very tempted to build a jungle room for the reps to play in.

    yeah i think im gunna have to just dig down and watch it for a few motnhs, when spring hits the ground will be thawing out and i should get an idea of where the water table is. i hope it isnt real shallow.
