Repair example flooded yard and crawl space

[Wgoodrich]

Below is a suggested method of artificially lowering the subsurface water around your home when standing water is in yard and crawl space is flooded. Both can be resolved if you find a location in the area that has lower land elevation than the crawl floor of your home to create a gravity drain and not endanger your footer on your home's integrity.

Hope this helps
