There are no dirt or sand all clay everything wet the front of the house I can pump out a 5 gal bucket of water a hour or so later I can do it again.

Is this water coming from the broken pipes or from outside ground water?

You didn't say but I'm going to assume that this is a older home with cast iron drainage.
This is not a healthy situation. Open drainage pipes can spew out some nasty stuff. You need a good sharp plumber to asses your system and either repair the broken pipes or convert your system to PVC. Good luck, Tom
