Considering surface runoff is the most common drainage problem, adjusting the grade is a recommended drainage solution. Integrity Drainage Solutions are experts at creating effective zones of drainage.
Ensuring a positive pitch for water flow away from your home is vital. Prevent pooling by directing the water off the property (a natural breeding ground for mosquitoes).
A drain tile system or a catch basin (yard drain) can be excellent approaches to supplement the benefits of proper grading. A 4" perforated drain tile back-filled with limestone chips will absorb seepage (underground water) under the center of a swale or other appropriate areas. Considering these pipes may freeze in a typical Wisconsin winter, they should be used as a secondary drainage solution.
