I got this same advice years ago from a local drainage and irrigation guy. Seemed like too much work at the time. Had a huge problem with water pooling last couple of years. Seems to be coming up from under the house. Your illustration was very helpful.

Wow, I am pleasantly surprised to have found your comprehensive presentation. I searched at least 20 videos last night, and none of them made logical sense; many were disorganized and failed to get to the point/efficiently explain how this process works. Thank you so much for this intelligently composed information.

great. when you mentioned the clay under layer my eyes lit up. also my house is built on ledge, talk about impervious. My other home on clay, and my other place is a building on the beach that has under ground garage that leaks. Nobody ever really thinks about the underground water movement.

Excellent video. Lots of good ideas. Could you not expand the concrete foundation around the perimeter of the house, say, by 1 meter or 2? Also, can you not solve some of the problems cheaper by just ensuring that the soil maintains a constant moisture level throughout and over the whole property over time by using soil moisture sensors and build a sort of irrigation system that could add moisture if needed in parts that are drier and prevent parts that could get too much moisture/water (presumably the perimeter of the house, by channeling the rain away from the perimeter of the house, for instance) from getting too wet? Do you think that if all water is being channeled away from under the house, there is virtually no possibility that this area will dry? In other words, will it maintain the moisture levels? I live in a tropical climate, with 40+ degrees for 3 months of the year.
