If the ground is slopes away from the foundation excess water will not accumulate near the house and sink in through the ground making your basement wet. In addition to checking the direction that the ground slopes around the foundation, you will want to ensure that your gutters are clean and the downspouts are not too close to the house. Because the gutters collect a lot of rainwater, clogged gutters can result in excess water building up on the edges of the house; cleaning the gutters every so often will ensure that water doesnt puddle around the house.

Next you will want to examine your basement floors and walls for any cracks in the concrete and repair them. Basement concrete floors and walls can have cracks in them that extend all the way through to the outside, which can be a source of water into the house making your basement wet. Cracks in the concrete can be repaired by using products such as hydraulic cement fillers or injecting construction-grade epoxy to fill the cracks. After cracks in the basement floors and walls are repaired you will want to seal your walls with some waterproof paint. Both these items can be purchased at your local home improvement store, however, getting help from a professional is the best option for this kind of repair to ensure that everything is basement sealing to keep the area dry.

This type of paint for a basement can be also be purchased at a local home improvement store, making how to keep a basement dry easy.

Another way to keep water from accumulating around the foundation and leaking into the basement is to have your downspouts discharging at least five feet away from the foundation. This can be done by adding extensions to your downspouts to direct the water away from the house; these extensions can be purchased at your local home improvement store.
