My patents did but it was many years ago back in Michigan. I remember the basement flooded every spring when the snow melted and it was a real problem and they had to have the whole area around the home dug-up so the sides of the basement could be covered with tar which stopped the leaks. Not knowing where you live and the climate adds some difficulty but if you have a do it yourself place sometimes the people there are fairly knowledgeable and can give you some good advise. I live in Arizona and have a large pond that was leaking and needed to fix the leaks without draining the pond since I have a lot of fish that added to the complication of repair. I knew there was a type of cement that cured in the water as I had watched shows about building bridges in deep water and knew that there were types of cement that worked in water, I found a product called Hydraulic Cement that is quite superior in regards to fixing cracks, sealing and fixing the leaks. This product works even when there was water leaking when applied. It is mixed with water like a plaster-of-paris and you need to apply it fairly quickly as it drys real fast and it works immediately. I don't know how much you would need but if you can find this product it is really good. To my understanding it actually improves the cement because it cures in wet as such it supposedly gives greater water proofing because of this characteristic.
