"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

You should always cover a French drain with gravel rather than dirt. Gravel will let water seep into the drain more easily, which means the drainpipe will collect more water and divert it away from your foundation. Dirt over a French drain will also clog the pores in the drainpipe over time, rendering your drainage system useless until you excavate the line and clear it, a time-consuming and potentially expensive process.

You might need a permit to modify or repair any portion of your plumbing system, including drainage lines, depending on where you live. In some areas, simple replacements of existing drain lines don’t require a permit. We recommend asking your drain pipe installer or your local building department about permitting requirements. In many cases, only certified plumbers can pull plumbing permits, so you’ll usually need to leave the permit application to your professional. The fee for the permit will be passed to you on your project bill, though.

Pea gravel is hands down a top pick for managing landscape drainage.  These small stones allow water to flow through easily by creating natural gaps that promote runoff. Beyond functionality, pea gravel also offers visual versatility. Homeowners will find a range of earthy tones like gray, brown, blue, and even red, making it easy to match with different outdoor styles and plantings.

When installing a French drain, the holes in your pipe go down. This allows water to flow from the gravel below into the pipe to be carried away from your flood-prone area. If you’re using a corrugated pipe with slots on all sides, it doesn’t matter which direction the pipe is facing.

The need for permits in drainage improvement projects depends on your location and the extent of the project. Generally, projects involving significant excavation, alterations to existing drainage systems, or those impacting public drainage systems may require permits. Check with your local building department or authorities to determine the specific permit requirements in your area before starting any drainage improvement work to ensure compliance with local regulations.
