Hi, I have water seeping up through the concrete floor of my basement

Hi, I have water seeping up through the concrete floor of my basement flat. I don't know whether to call a builder or a plumber! Any advice please? Thanks

go to the council and get a copy of the drains positions, that will be a good indicator also go to the "toby" valve that supply's your property and see the run it would take to get into the property they are noramlly fairly straight form the toby to the stopcock. that will give you an indication of the pipework underground, then get a plumber
