is there a sump pit in your basement? There should be. Stick a sump pump in there, run pipe to the outside (run it away from your house or you'll just pump the water right back in) and check local ordinances because some places require you to run it into the sanitary sewer.

Best part of this fix is, the sump pump will automatically come on when the water level in the pit gets too high, so your basement shouldn't flood again.
