but the landscaper talked to me about that option prior to designing the new patio
The contractor I hired spoke with me about my potential issues prior to conducting any work. I said screw it and that I'll deal with it later if I have to

Lowes carries a corrugated french drain pipe that is bascially a pipe with a bunch of holes in it...wrapped inside a case that contains a bunch of packing peanuts. I had a similar problem at my house and I installed 3 of these inline (30' long). I then connected it to a regular 4" drain pipe and ran it about 100 feet out to a drainage canal. I rented a ditch witch from Home Depot to dig the trench for the pipe and I had this thing knocked out in about 3 hours doing it by myself. It works perfectly and you would never know it was under my grass.
