French Drains

Interior French Drain Installation

If you are experiencing repeated problems with a wet basement, and water seepage low to the floor, then an interior French Drain could be the perfect solution. An interior French Drain is a trench that is marginally sloped, providing a channel for the water to flow through and into a sump pump basin. The trench is filled with gravel as well as perforated pipe, in which the water runs freely and then empties at a safe distance from your home. The purpose of a French Drain is to divert the water away from your home in order to reduce flooding, as well as the damage that it causes such as deteriorating foundations.

French Drains and yard drains are designed to deflect water from problem areas where water accumulates and the drainage is poor. If your yard is consistently wet, or your property has areas where water builds up either in your driveway or near your foundation, proper drainage will collect the water from below the surface and redirect it to an area away from your home.
Saturated lawns and surface water close to the foundation lead to wet basements, which can create problems with water damage, mold, or even property damage.

Install 91’ of internal french drain with 2 sump pumps and 2 battery back up sump pump systems

I express my appreciation to Mike and his crew for the excellent job they performed on 1/23/19 & 1/24/19 in the installation of 91’ of internal French drains and 4 sump pumps in my home. All members of this crew were very conscientious and hard working. Mike took all the time needed to answer all my questions and to keep me advised of the work as his crew progressed thru the job. I really have a hard time finding the words to compliment this crew. The quality of men in this crew, their work ethic, demeanor, and friendliness are such a positive reflection of your company. I look forward to working with these gentlemen when they return to install the outside downspout piping. Also, I am recommending your company to a friend of my wife who is having some dampness and mold issues in her basement.
