How is any water that gets under your house going to get out of you build said levee?

Think he is trying to prevent it from getting there in the first place.
I would look at more than a little levee type fix. Sounds like the water needs a way to go the opposite direction too or you will have water standing around the house next.

My wifes aunt had a problem with water getting under her house and not being able to get out...................................they are now replacing all the floor joist.......which basically means they are doing a complete remodel of the entire house.

Side note: The house is very very old.

If I start getting standing water around the house I'll deal withy that then. Trying to avoid putting in a sump pump. I can pump out the water that's there already with a bilge pump or something once I get it blocked off.
