Window Leaks and Bulging Walls

05/09/2008 10:52 PM tybozmom

I am concerned about my house. I have 3 windows leaking (I have a 1 story house and all 3 windows hang at the same level on the same wall). The water is coming in the TOP of all 3 windows. Below the windows we had to dig a swale b/c the slope of our yard was angled towards the house. We couldn't afford to reslope, so we were given the idea to build a swale. The contractor didn't put in a French Drain (something we just heard about) and now, we have bulging all along that back wall just above the vents (where the floors meet the crawl space). What do I do about the leaks and the bulging??? WIll it cost me a fortune??? And what kind of person does this work? I don't know who to call....

Thanks in advance,
Michelle
