16 degrees when I got up this morning, snow on the ground since late Friday and snowing lightly off and on since then. High of 39 degrees today.
Might think about using infiltrators instead of pipe this time. They use this on drainfields now. Much more room.I got 3.5 inches of rain between 8pm and 1am... flooding started, not serious, just very annoying... Time to call a basement/foundation company. Around the back of the house beside the foundation we put a gravel bed, perforated pipe, then covered it with gravel. That was 47 years ago. I think over the years this drain has filled with sand. There is nothing piping water off the back wall which is why it floods when I get over 3 inches of rain. We only need to redo the corner of the house where my bedroom is located... about $6/7 grand is my best guess. Gravel, pipe, a trackhoe and 1 day of labor should do it.
