No, that is just rose bush. I'm trying to avoid a pump so is there another solution?
What about a pit, if it goes to the pit and gets full, will it go back through the perforated pipe?
Hi,
This is my 2nd time doing it. I want it to be bulletproof and never have to touch it again.
The issue is my drainage outlet. It drops at the end about 12 inches and has to go back up hill for daylight.
I had some water intrusion issue.
Plan is :
1. 2 layers of waterproof membrane
2. 1 Drainage dimple mat
3. Mat sits on drainage pipe
4. Cover pipe with 2 layers of sock, then fill with sand on top
5. Backfill rest with clay soil.
The issue I'm running into is the last part of foundation has a 12...
1. I don't think the neighbors did anything wrong. Their gutters is like 200 ft away from the fence. Is their water suppose to stay on their yard even though it's really high?
2. The cutoff trench is a great idea, but I would have to use some type of mechanical removal since it's slope upward...
I just found my land survey and it seems there's a drainage easement. I actually haven't gone behind my fence to take a look. It's covered with trees, bushes and thorns.
The arrows represent my yard slope.
I have attached a bigger picture from county gis.
I'm on an 1/2 acre lot, the house with all the red arrows. My neighbor is above me with raised elevation of about 10 ft high being where their house is and sloping towards the back of their yard.
This gradually slopes down to where my house is. All of their gutters drain to the back of the yard...
Sorry, that was old pipe. We took it out. It's solid 4 in pvc pipe in the ground with holes right at the bottom of the garage floor or cmu wall.
It discharge out to the driveway.
These are 1 acre lots so the neighbors don't really affect that spot. Not to the best of my knowledge or what I have seen.
The right size opposite of the brick is over a crawlspace, that doesn't get any water in. That side drain to back of the house.
It only affects below the brick area BUT...
1. we fix the brick with flashing on top, double caulk inside and outside, then paint the flashing.
Better side picture attached. It is a pretty level and large lot so none affected by neighbors.
That ground spot where the brick is all sloped away from the house. I still don't understand how...
We brought a house and noticed water going into garage. It was at the top of the brick wall so that's been addressed. Our house is in Georgia so you have red clay.
The brick wall on the inside is our garage. Water is going into the ground where the red lines are at and draining into garage on...
