French Drains FAQ

What is a French drain and how does it work?

A French drain is a gravel-filled trench containing a perforated pipe that redirects groundwater or surface water away from your property. It works by collecting excess water and channeling it to a safe drainage point, preventing water damage and erosion.

When should I consider installing a French drain?

You should consider a French drain if you have standing water, soggy lawns, foundation leaks, or poor yard drainage. It’s especially useful in areas with heavy rainfall or clay soil, where water tends to pool or drain slowly.

How long does it take to install a French drain?

Most residential French drain installations take 1 to 3 days, depending on the length, soil conditions, and site accessibility. Larger or more complex drainage systems may require more time.

Will a French drain damage my landscaping?

Our team takes care to minimize disruption to your yard. While some digging is required, we restore the area as much as possible after installation, and we can work with you to plan around existing landscaping features.
