The gutters were clogged and caused water leaking into the basement. The gutters have been cleaned and fixed. Do I need to do anything now to repair the damage in the basement, besides cleaning with bleach? Is there something more I need to do to waterproof the basement?

If the basement walls are concrete you can paint them with a product called dry-lock. It is a paint with hydraulic cement in it and you can find it in the paint section of your local hardware store.

relies upon on what is going on together with your basemen. Is it block or is it concrete partitions? no matter if it really is block i'd recommend figuring out to purchase a rubber rized product from living house depot or anther keep that could want to carry some thing like that.And coat each little thing and a million-2" inches on the floor whare the wall and the floor meet.

Get some Damp Rid and hang in there. It will absorb the excess moisture. You can get it at WM, Lowe's, or HD.

dig down outside walls below foundation level about 2 feet more, fill with rocks and drain it away from house on all sides...
