When we purchased this house it had a drainage problem in the back yard – a couple days after a good rain, water would stand in the backyard…at the walk through we said fix it. Despite the efforts of Lennar or their sub contractors the water issue remained. Until now…after about 4 months of the back patio area being a mess I finished the project.

I poured 3-4 yards of concrete, stamped, & colored it. And I added a drain to send water to the ditch in the back of the yard. This was my first experience with stamping and coloring concrete. It’s not great but it’s only concrete. Take a look at the pictures from the project.

We were in the neighborhood yesterday morning and as we drove by, I told Kyle, "We shoulda called the Cinnamons and gone to see their new backyard." Oh well. From the pictures, it looks great!
