I have negative drainage on the east side of my home. I called to have a contractor give me a bid. It was alot more than I thought it would be. $2500 to be exact. OUCH! My question, is this something we would be able to do on our own or is it there a "science" to it. I am not sure how hard this would be. We don't have the know how, but don't mind putting in the work. What would your advice be? It has to be fixed since it is the cause of our home sinking on that side.
