Blooming where I am planted! | The house I'm in has had flooding problems in the basement (up to 4 inches of water) ever since I can remember. A landscape company said I should spend $700 to regrade the backyard along the south side of the house (about a 6-8' strip), and run the gutters underground out onto the lawn, with drains coming up in the middle of the lawn. I thougth they were full of it but decided to go for it anyway. 6 years later and not a drop in the basement, even after a very recent huge rain that dropped 8 inches of rain in 2 days. Best $700 I have spent on this house. |
