I have an inground pool in my backyard. Probably due to very rocky soil, the pool is raised compared to the rest of the yard. Right in front of my patio the slope leading up to the pool is about 2-3 feet high. A strong rain comes down that slope directly onto my patio and may soon get high enough to enter my home through the back patio door. I believe the ground is lower to the left and right of this area. I am looking for the most economical way to get this water to drain to the side. Respond to hreynolds@austin.rr.com.
