hello, I have a basement with sandstone walls. There is a small hole in one place through which water comes in from outside. After heavy rain, a 3-5 m² puddle forms, rarely more. The water comes from the hills; underground there are watercourses and one of them runs at this corner of my house. The basement floor is about 1.5 meters below the street surface. The watercourses have existed for about 10 years because the underground watercourses changed due to a large construction pit nearby.
now I want to fill the hole with cement and apply some cement to the wall about 40x40 cm and dry it with a heater. Is cement suitable for this? Sealing the entire wall apparently makes no sense, because the rest of the wall is dry, between somewhat more than iron dry. There is a slight moisture, but low. In addition, sandstone is supposed to absorb water.
Can someone tell me which material and tools might be suitable?
