What is a French Drain?
A French drain is a proven drainage system designed to redirect excess water away from problem areas in your yard. It consists of a perforated pipe buried in a gravel-filled trench, allowing water to drain efficiently and preventing soggy lawns, pooling, and structural damage.
Signs You Need a French Drain
✔️ Water pooling in your yard after heavy rain
✔️ Flooding near your foundation or basement
✔️ Persistent soggy or muddy spots on your lawn
✔️ Water runoff issues affecting landscaping or hardscapes
✔️ Soil erosion around your property

Our French Drain Installation Process
1. Site Assessment & Custom Plan
Our experienced team evaluates your property’s drainage issues and develops a tailored French drain solution for maximum effectiveness.
2. Trench Excavation & Pipe Installation
We carefully dig a trench, ensuring the proper slope for optimal water flow. A perforated drainage pipe is then installed and surrounded by high-quality gravel for efficient water movement.
3. Protective Layer & Finishing Touches
We cover the drain with a protective landscape fabric to prevent clogging and finish with soil or decorative stone for a seamless look.
4. Final Inspection & Cleanup
Before completing the project, we ensure your new French drain is fully functional and leave your property clean and tidy.
