Excess water near your home’s foundation and below the soil’s surface can lead to serious structural damage, erosion, and landscaping issues.

What Is a French Drain System?

A French drain system consists of a perforated pipe buried in a gravel-filled trench. It works by collecting water from the surrounding soil and redirecting it away from your home’s foundation, ensuring that water does not pool or seep into unwanted areas.

Key Features of a French Drain System:

  • Perforated Pipe

    Allows water to enter and flow freely.

  • Gravel or Rock Layer

    Filters water and prevents debris from clogging the pipe.

  • Trench Placement

    Positioned to redirect water to a safe drainage area, such as a storm drain or lower elevation.

When Do You Need a French Drain System?

French drains are ideal for addressing common drainage issues, such as:

Water Pooling in Your Yard Areas of your lawn that remain wet or soggy and saturated well after rain indicate poor natural drainage.
Foundation Damage Excessive saturation, or standing water near your foundation can cause upheaval, cracks and weaken its stability over time.
Soggy or Flooded Basements Moisture seeping into basements or crawl spaces signals the need for improved drainage.
Erosion in Landscaping Soil erosion around your home can destroy landscaping and destabilize the ground.
Frequent Mold or Mildew Excess moisture near your home can encourage mold growth and poor air quality.
