Can you add a rain barrel that diverts the excess water away from your home?
A scupper. I did the same on my house. I put a large ceramic pot filled with stones and had it a bit on an angle. The water hits the ceramic pot, it runs off down pavers to the street.
I would bring in some dirt and build up an “watershed apron” with 6 mil Visqueen (buy it by the roll on-line) on top the dirt
and crushed rock on top the plastic.
Don’t buy pretty gravel in the garden section, buy crushed rock in the concrete foundations section.
It can be edged with big rocks or bricks to look like a flower bed.
If you’ve access to a truck, then go for bulk, not bagged.
Fill dirt might or mulch be free, at a City yard.
