Basement Drainage System Estimate

[Richelle T.]

Hello all

I'm looking at a property that has about 2 inches of standing water in the basement. It looks like it was caused by a grading issue that cannot be easily fixed. There is a garage entry to the basement that is the lowest point in the yard. The neighbor has an identical configuration and installed drains so the water would go into the main drain of the house. The couldn't remember how much the installation cost. Does anyone have any idea about how much this type of repair could run? Would a sump pump be a better solution than a passive drain?
