If you answered yes to any of these questions, it’s time to consider installing a new drainage system.

A French Drain installation is an effective solution designed to manage water drainage around your home or commercial building.

The installation process begins with digging a trench alongside the foundation. We then waterproof your foundation using three different waterproofing materials to ensure long-lasting protection. A black fabric is applied inside the trench to maintain cleanliness in the trench.

Next, drain rock is spread at the trench base to facilitate efficient drainage. A fabric wrapped 4-inch perforated PVC pipe with holes facing downward, is laid at the bottom of the trench. The trench is then back filled with additional drain rock, topped with soil or new concrete to complete the installation.

Drainage issues should never be ignored. They might start small, but they can escalate quickly, leading to widespread damage and costly repairs. Whether it’s a soggy backyard lawn, wet foundations, chipped concrete, or ponding on patios or lawn areas, these signs indicate the need for a drainage system to redirect water away from your home. Most installations are completed in just 5-7 days.
