I had too drill a couple of 4" holes through a concrete block wall and I lost the center bit for the coring saw twice. The first time I managed to fish it out with a magnet. That's when I noticed that the bottom row of blocks has about 6" of water in them. I thought this was a little strange, should I worry about it? One wall has a funky green colouring near the bottom, looks like algae, but it's probably mold.
I was going to drill some half inch holes to drain the water, but I'm not sure this is a bright idea? The room is an entryway for an outside stairwell and has it's own drain.
