Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Linear drainage systems are popular for patios thanks to their straightforward installation and reliable performance. Often used along the edges of brick, concrete, or paver patios, these extended, narrow drains effectively capture and channel surface water away. Gully drains come in various shapes and serve a similar purpose by collecting runoff and directing it into the central drainage system to prevent water buildup.

Using filter fabric is highly recommended because it helps prevent debris and sediment from clogging the drain. It’s best to use a non-woven geotextile landscape fabric for your French drain because it is designed to allow water to flow through but not soil particles and other debris. It’s durable and long-lasting, which is why it’s the top choice for French drains.

If you’re wondering how much water a French drain can handle, a well-designed system manages around 75 gallons per minute. However, the answer varies based on the overall design, slope, and the type of aggregate material used. Additionally, the size of the aggregate used in the system impacts its capacity, with larger aggregate creating larger voids that are able to accommodate more water.

The best way to ensure the ground next to your home’s foundation drains properly is to divert water away from it as much as possible. While a flood wall can stop water from entering the house, gutters and spouts can help direct rainwater and melting snow away from the foundation. Keep your gutters as clear as possible from dead leaves and other yard debris so they can effectively divert water from your house. Add extenders to the spouts so the water runs out and away from your home, not into the surrounding soil.

The property owner is responsible for driveway culverts. Check with your city and state for local laws, but in most cases, it is the responsibility of the homeowner to maintain and repair culverts. 

Since repairs can be costly, routine inspections and maintenance are essential in order to keep costs down and prevent flooding.
