- - Preparation - Clear the area and mark the trench path before digging.
- - Trenching - Dig a trench that slopes away from the foundation for proper drainage.
- - Lining - Place landscape fabric inside the trench to prevent soil from clogging the pipe.
- - Installation - Lay perforated pipe inside the trench and cover with gravel for effective water flow.
- - Backfilling - Fill the trench with soil, ensuring the fabric remains in place and the surface is level.
French drain installation typically involves excavating a trench in the designated area, laying perforated pipe within a gravel or crushed stone bed, and covering it with additional gravel or soil to facilitate proper drainage. The process may also include grading adjustments to ensure water flows toward the drain and connecting the system to existing drainage outlets or sump pumps. When evaluating requests, details such as the size and location of the area requiring drainage, soil type, existing drainage issues, and accessibility of the site are important to determine the scope of work, materials needed, and overall feasibility of the project.
