Dumping some dye in the commode will show seapage if it's happening. The previous owners had trouble here. The seven weeping runs are gravel then top soil backfilled over tile in impervious clay. The only way out for moisture is up. I ran a trench along four feet from the 1st weeping run to catch yard/driveway run off before it ran and sat ontop of the weeping beds. The run off trench is tiled and backfilled to the top with drainage stone. The salt brine from the water softener and the laundry water now goes to a separate grey water drain. One of these days the upstairs bathtub/shower is getting re-routed to the grey drain as well. Been fine for three years but I'm not about to go bragging either.
