Common Causes

• Poor yard grading – flat or negative slope toward house
• High water table – 2-4 feet below surface in Seminole County
• Compacted soil – water runs off instead of soaking in
• Blocked drainage infrastructure – clogged swales or culverts
• Hardscape runoff – driveways and patios increase runoff volume

Why You Can’t Ignore It

• Foundation damage from hydrostatic pressure
• Mosquito breeding ground
• Dead grass and landscaping
• Property value drops

Proven Fixes

Regrading: Fix the slope. French drains: Collect subsurface water. Catch basins: Collect surface water at specific points. Dry wells: Percolate water underground. Swales: Channel water across flat properties.

What NOT to Do

Adding topsoil to a low spot just moves the puddle. Extending downspouts without a plan floods somewhere else.
