My back yard has always been slow to drain in particular area. It has gotten increasingly worse over the years thanks to our lovely heavy clay soil. It's my understanding that it has just become more and more compact and hardened due the long drought we are hopefully coming out of.
Has anyone ever gone the French drain route? Is it ok or common to simply tap that or some other pipe into the sewer drainage? (which is nearby).
Changing the grade of the property is probably not do-able as I can't imagine where I could even send the water.
