Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Regrading around your home’s foundation requires you to stay 4 inches below the top of the foundation and 4 inches below the bottom of the siding. Too high and heavy rain will make its way into your home; too low, and you may experience an increase in critters and pests.

The best drainage system deposits rainwater as far away from your house as possible. This limits foundation damage but also helps prevent the discovery of inches of water from a leak when you look in your basement. There are some drainage options, like French drains—a perforated pipe that releases water across a line of small stones—but the best option is always a long pipe that releases water far from the house.

If you are dealing with shallow water issues, a French drain may be used with rocks and no pipe. However, for areas that experience large amounts of water or heavy rainfall, you should use a corrugated or PVC pipe in the French drain. The pipe helps redirect and distribute the water effectively to another area, which can help prevent pooling water in your lawn and around your home.

A range of certified professionals can install French drains, from foundation specialists to plumbers. However, you’ll want to make sure that the professional has a breadth of experience installing the specific type of drain you need in or outside your home. Your contractor should also have experience with sump pumps, waterproofing, and flood-proof landscaping.

We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
