In this episode of River City Podcast, host Jess Ellett chats with Chris Gutzmer of G & R Contracting about a common and often underestimated problem—standing water around your home’s foundation. Chris breaks down the risks that water accumulation can pose, from foundation damage to mold growth, and shares practical advice for homeowners to prevent it.

He explains how to assess your yard’s grading, the importance of properly positioned gutters and downspouts, and when solutions like French drains, swales, or sump pumps are worth considering. Whether you're dealing with heavy rains or just soggy soil, this episode is full of smart, straightforward tips to help keep your home dry and damage-free.
