What Is a French Drain System?
A French drain is a gravel-filled trench with a perforated pipe that redirects water away from buildings, paved areas, or saturated ground. It helps manage stormwater and groundwater effectively. We install French drains around foundations, along retaining walls, and across car parks or yards. Our work protects structures, reduces erosion, and improves drainage across sites of all sizes.
WHAT'S UNCLUDED
- Trench excavation to spec
- Placement of filter fabric Installation of perforated pipe
- Surrounding with clean drainage stone
- Surface grading for water flow
- Optional inspection access points
- Backfilling and compaction
