Water has always flows under house its built on the side of a hill. As far as I know its never been a issue my dad knocked a hole on the bottom side for it to exit. With a wet winter the ground is still saturated. I am running a natural gas line to my shop (right now its a EZ dig) and had to locate 9 different underground lines. It took me 8 hr. to find and dig under water lines, sewer, phone, electrical and cable lines that have been run to different buildings...
As I did water comes out of the ground even 100 ft from the house as you can see once I get past the top soil its clay... I am thinking to my self I found out I am still man enough still to work a shovel... I may miss a good opportunity...
There are only a few more things to locate around the house and I know zackly were they are at...
What can I do help get the underground water to drain away from the house. Somehow I should be able to put in a underground drain system to get the water to drain away from the house...
I got this to finish out the rest
The Natural gas folks have told me for years they would hook my shop to NG they have came out and marked it a few times but never came back... I had a tank less gas water heater install and the underground line going into the meter was leaking. They told me if I locate all my underground stuff and did the trench they would run the line no charge... I do want to get off the bottle (LP)
