I have a house in South Austin that floods during very heavy rains. The houses on one side and behind the house are uphill and the front yard flattens out with a retaining wall between the yard and the sidewalk. The water is collecting on the side the house and rises until it comes into the walls at the baseboards. About an inch of water travels across the master bedroom into the hallway. Need someone to analyze the area and create a design for a drainage solution.

I deal with drainage problem daily. I could help. Any survey info you have would help greatly. I'd prepare a construction plan package that any contractor can follow and install. The local municipality may need building permits, depending on the size of project. But we can figure that out later on.

Hi, I'm a professional Hydrologist that specialises in urban drainage and based in the UK, where urban drainage and flood risk is very big business. I can propose some drainage that prevents the flooding, is good for the environment and is aestetically pleasing (not only fitting in with the garden but also improving it). Furthermore, though there will be the initial cost of implementig the drainage (doing the work such as digging and planting will save money), the drainage methods I am propsing are relatively maintenance and cost free in the future and are therefore highly sustainable. I have put in a bid at the top end of the scale but for that you will have a design that, if implemented correctly, will work and be something to be proud of. It will also be provided by a professional and at a much lower cost than a company would charge. Hope you are interested.

Hello, my name is Dimitris (you can call me Jim) and I am a Civil Engineer. I have seen this before and there are plenty ways to deal with it once and for all. But we have to find the solution that suits your needs. The solution will depend from many factors such as the geology of the area, the geomentry of the yard and the amount of money you want to invest on the construction. Due to the fact that I am living in Europe, I won't be able to be there in person so I will need from you some photographs from the yard and some dimensions of the yard and the house so I can be more precise
