How do I fix standing water in my yard?
First find where the water comes from: downspouts, a low spot, a neighbor's slope, or a high water table near the rivers. The fix is usually regrading, a French drain, a dry well, or tying downspouts into buried pipe, often a combination.

Drainage & Grading questions
How much does a French drain cost?
Residential French drains commonly run $40–$100 per linear foot depending on depth, access and outlet. Dry wells and downspout tie-ins are priced per unit.
Can drainage be done without ruining my lawn?
Trenches are restored with topsoil and seed or sod; most lawns look normal within a few weeks.
Will this help my wet basement?
Moving roof and surface water away from the foundation often helps. Interior waterproofing issues need a basement specialist.
