[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 3563219, member: 6777"] Railroad ties or Concrete against the fence. We have a house that the water runs off the hillside behind. Prop belongs to city and they told us tough. Hired a drainage company who sculpted the lawn, put in drains and looked good. those heavy rains last year flooded the house even worse. Hired a crew of do anything for a buck guys, Had them tear out that crap.(wife was furious) dig a ditch along the sidewalk, pour concrete and make a 6 inch x12 inch concrete ditch down the length of the house and towards the street. put extensions on gutters to flow into ditch. put a row of railroad ties against the fence with dirt and grass like a dam to point away from house. Completely cured problem. Got it done cheaper than the drainage guys originally charged me for their crap. [/QUOTE]
