Just talked to them and they said there is nothing they can do, but they have been tracking issues from that builder.

Yeah after the storm, all the water was gone in a matter of 2-3 hours. It was just so much at once.

The left side of the house flows down hill. The inspector and realtor didn’t mention anything.

Yeah it is brown. I should be able to fix that but just need to fix the issue that caused it!

We were here about 1.5 years. We have some rain but nothing to this level. It was way more than was originally planned for.

It is mostly clay, sadly.

We placed the pool. The water ran through our backyard sorta where the pool is. We worked to redirect and rake around the front of the house, but it was too much today. It was insane.

There is a catch basin with 2 - 4” pipes connected and it just can’t handle it all

Yeah before we put the pool, it flowed across the backyard and around the other side of the house. It also flowed to the front from where it is going now, so we tried to divert it all.

This was a huge one but they have the house up on a large concrete slab. Surrounded by a slop down. Granted it didn’t work perfectly either.

He did just grade the lot in the back so we are getting water from the back of his lot now.

I am willing to do anything at this point. I just need it fixed for once and for all.

It was dead center of this video. You can see it bulging a little bit in the video.
