ditch /creek flows in backyard

[myfs_77768]

A concrete-lined drainage ditch flows
along the back of my property from the
South corner to the East corner. The
house and property face NW. Does this
situation require a remedy and if so, what
do you recommend? Many thanks for this
helpful forum. Alexis

Dear Alex,
It would be good if you can draw close sketch and attach it to this forum.
I would like to answer your question but, I hope can understand that I would need to see the following clearly:-
1. The shape of your plot of land and the outline of the concrete-lined drainage ditch.
In particular - the outline of the concrete-lined drainage.
2. Describe the gradient on all four sides of the house.
3. If possible, describe the surrounding houses e.g in front; side.
Alternatively a street directory map of the sector of your house.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
