I've had a water problem with it getting into my garage for years from a hill behind my house. The water would get under the slab and over the years crack it in winter. I had a new garage floor poured and a trench dug around the garage which was connected to tubing that ran into a catch basin in the middle of my driveway and out to the street. I also had a new driveway poured after the drainage system was installed.Gutters and downspouts on the garage are also connected to the system.
