    We have lived in our house now for 6.5 years, the entire time we've dealt with drainage issues and erosion problems. These last few weeks have been busy, I put in a retaining wall to resolve some erosion issues, and started putting in drains with catch basins and pop ups to resolve underlying drainage issues we have against our house. This is the west side of our house, the drainage issues were on the east side which I resolved with a french drain and pop up in the yard as well, but don't have good pictures of it. I figured while I was at it, I'd just go ahead and do all the downspouts. Overall I could not be happier, we've had a couple big rain storms and for the first time since we built the house my sump pits remained dry.

    retaining wall before and after (notice the drain off the downspout is along the bottom of the retaining wall...problem)
    [​IMG]

    so I buried the problem and moved the water so it would flow appropriately away from the house
    [​IMG]

    done (there was already a lot of grass/dirt issues here so I didn't care about saving the yard)
    [​IMG]

    this downspout I cared more since it's on the front side of the house, so I put down a tarp prior to digging.
