    Leaking underground PVC drainage pipe
    Recently water has been pooling on my lawn and spilling over into my neighbor's yard. I think it may be a leaking underground PVC drainage pipe. How can I fix this?

    It depends upon where the pipe's located. You are responsible for all the pipes that are on your property. Good luck, Tom
