Hello,I would need some help here as the builder claims that even though the foundation footing drains are crushed, the stones surrounding the pipe is sufficient to allow the water to flow and hence will not cause water to back up. I find this rather ludicrous but was wondering what others thought. We had water seeping upwards from the sides of the ejector tub in the basement last winter and so I decided to investigate it myself. Attached are some pictures. Does anyone know which IRC code this violates? Isn't this considered a defect for a new construction? Thanks.
