"Stop searching and hire The Tim’s. 100/5 stars. If you need someone who is honest, does great work, is extremely knowledgeable, goes above and beyond AND has fair pricing, you found them. We are SO lucky we found them. Our situation sucked but it could have been way worse (and frankly, 5x the cost). They communicated at every stage of the project, explained what was going on and what to expect and prepare for. They worked in single digit weather, early mornings/weekend/late nights, did everything possible to limit the cost, and really went the extra mile to complete the job although they had to move their schedule around. We had a leak in a pipe in the yard. It became urgent when we started to get water in the basement. They moved their schedule around, got the permits, rented the equipment, etc in the matter of about a day. Most people would have told us “oh well you’ll have to wait”, but the Tims CARE and that’s the difference."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Crawl space foundation problems can stem from a few different issues, but the most common are moisture and water problems and soil instability. Moisture and water issues are often a result of poor drainage, which can lead to water intrusion and soil expansion and contraction, leaving your foundation under added stress. A few things can cause soil instability, including poor drainage, karst landscapes and resulting sinkholes, and poorly compacted soil during construction.

The pipe size for French drains depends on whether the area collects large amounts of water and experiences heavy rainfall. Typically, a 4-inch perforated pipe is used for French drains. However, for heavily saturated areas, you may want to use a larger size, such as a 6-inch or 8-inch pipe. Consult your French drain installer for best results.

Most people consider a French drain to be one of the most effective solutions for foundation leaks, but it’s not always a standalone solution. French drains will help keep water away from your foundation to reduce the risk of leaking and structural damage from soil expansion, but depending on your foundation type and location, you might need other systems or techniques—like soil gradation and gutter and leader installation—to resolve the underlying problem.

If not properly maintained, an underground downspout may damage your home's foundation. A clogged downspout can back up, causing water to pool around the base of your home and seep into the foundation. Regular inspections and maintenance keep your downspout in good working order, preventing damage and protecting your home.

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.
