I just moved into a brand new house. The back garden gets water logged after just a shower of rain. I've dug out a 400mm x 300mm drain to be filled with pea gravel and a drainage pipe. But I've notice when I was digging it out the soil was so poor very much daub compressed and left over from the builders with a token layer of top soil. Will the drainage system work with this type of soil. I was going to use an aerator and sand to help things along. Tks
