Seeking recommendations for drainage / wet basement problem solving

[Gardener]

Although the extremely damp spring is probably a distant memory for most, I am seeking recommendations for contractors who deal with improving wet basement issues and also consider exterior drainage issues.

All input welcomed!

Thankyou.

If you contact 10 contractors, you will receive 10 solutions.
I live a the bottom of Main St. hill, next to condos.
I have a creek that carries ground water from the center going thru my backyard.
There is a storm sewer that runs in front of my house carrying water from the center. I am not hooked up to the sewer.
On a wet spring the water table is 10 inches below ground level.

I have lived in this house for over 30 years- four or five water in the basement problems during that period of time. Maximum of 2 inches.
I have no sump pump.
I have French tiles covering the rear part of basement floor level, The discharge is to the creek.
The rear outside cement wall of the basement is covered with tar and plastic to ground level. Best available materials in 1975.
Gutters cover all roofs with discharges away from the house. The few times that I had water problems, the lack of gutters contributed to the water problem.

The work is a no brainer. A strong back and a light wallet, you can do the French tile work for less than $500. I would estimate contractors will charge between $4,000 and $8,000. Insurance, overhead and profit will be over 60% of the bill.

50 foot trench ~ 15 to 18 inches deep for the back wall.
50 foot trench 24 inches deep for drainage from back wall.
About 1 cubic yard of gravel.
Two to three gallons of tar (Driveway sealer)
Showel, drill (3/8 inch drill bit)
Brush for tar.
Between 16 and 24 hours of medium physical labor. (Good physical shape 30 to 45 year old male)
Installation of 150 feet of gutters $2400 to $5000.

People on Dana drive area behind cemetery have similar solutions.
