A two percent (or 1:50) is considered a good slope for the drainage of lawn areas. The type of soil you have will also affect drainage. With a more sandy soil a flatter slope may be fine.

Even more important than the slope of the drypack on top of the liner is a pre-slope under the liner or hot mop to achieve proper drainage.
