Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

The best way to waterproof a basement is to install a properly functioning gutter system and a French drain around the outside of the foundation. The best solution for your home could involve other waterproofing methods that resolve the problem unique to your situation. Depending on your soil type, climate, and other factors, that could include sealing, landscape alteration, interior drainage systems, and more.

A French drain should be anywhere from 8 inches to 24 inches deep. The ideal French drain depth is about 1 1/2 feet deep, but you can vary the depth depending on the slope angle you need for your pipe. Consult a local French drain installer to determine the right depth for your installation project.

When installing your yard drainage system, consider the slope of your property. Drainage trenches must slope away from your yard by at least a 1% slope to drain properly

Also, consider how much water you need to drain. If your yard holds a lot of water in the winter, consider installing multiple drains to keep the area dry efficiently. Each municipality has different limits for how much water you can drain off your property. 

Before digging, always call 811. Even if you’re only digging a few inches, you could sever a gas or sewage line. A cut line is a serious safety hazard.

Since basements are prone to water and moisture issues and the resulting problems can be expensive to repair and potentially damaging to your home, basement waterproofing is almost always worthwhile. Even for homes that haven’t experienced water infiltration, waterproofing the basement is insurance against facing expensive repair bills in the future. All basements will leak at some point, so fixing drainage issues and taking steps to prevent moisture and water infiltration is wise.

French drains and footing drains are virtually identical, except that French drains sit a foot or two beneath the ground, and footing drains sit as deep as your foundation footings go, sometimes up to 10 feet. Both drainage systems collect water before it reaches the soil around your foundation and divert it to a safe place on your property for disposal.
