Default We had standing water too

We too had a lot of standing water after these two hard rains we had. It left a lot of water in our landscaping area (the area where we have our shrubs planted) and it looked like a small pond out there. I called home warranty twice and the first time i called, after the first heavy rain, they said as long as it goes away with 48 hours it was fine. When we got the second rain we got concerned again and called back. They put a work order in for the builder to come and look at it. I took pictures so that we could show him. We were concerned about the new landscaping we are having put in as we thought it would compromise the roots on the larger palms we were planting. Our landscapers assured us that our problem was common, as they have the same problem, and not to worry. Our builder hasn't showed up to give us his two cents yet.
