Our city has had a record amount of rainfall (Edmonton Alberta, Canada) this past month, and by grace our basement has not flooded like many others. We own a 1965 1100sq ft bungalow in a mature neighborhood with a full basement of equal sq footage. This is in the cold storage pantry under the stairs and so has no drywall or insulation. I noticed the pantry smelled a little musty (not heavily), and saw this slightly damp seepage. It's a small foundational crack, and like I said the rainfall was record breaking (250mm in the month of June).

Anyway, is this a paint over repair or would it be advised to go further? It smells fine elsewhere in the basement and no stains on the walls, etc.
