Why is my yard flooding when it rains?
Yard flooding typically results from inadequate grading, compacted soil, or low spots that block proper water drainage. If your yard slopes toward your home rather than away from it, water accumulates instead of running off. In St. Louis, this issue is especially common due to clay-heavy soil that has poor water absorption.How do I fix standing water in my yard?
The appropriate solution varies based on the underlying cause, but typical remedies include:
Regrading your yard to direct water flow away from structures
Installing French drains or catch basins
Adding topsoil to fill low-lying areas
A professional assessment will ensure water is properly redirected rather than simply relocated to create another drainage problem.Do I need a French drain or grading?
The answer depends on your specific situation:
Grading addresses surface drainage and slope problems
French drains manage subsurface water or ongoing pooling issues
Most properties require both methods working together to completely resolve drainage problems—not just provide a short-term fix.How much does a French drain cost?
