The same as my last post - first time homeowner.
My home has a significant garden, all grass with the exception of a 6 foot square pond (the type thats essentially a plastic tub buried in the ground).
The lawn seems to retain water when it rains, resulting in squelchy grass. The grass seems to be made up with quite a lot of 'moss', and there are a few lower areas - like 3 foot diameter circles - that will retain standing water.
Is there anything i can do to improve drainage? The last occupiers sadly paid no heed to the garden so i would have thought they hadn't even prodded it with a fork.
It is not near any water and is around 12m+ elevation from sea level. No hills around the home and no streams or similar going anywhere near.
