"Water proofing very good results. BUT Caution regarding floor repair from ANY contractor. Make sure you discuss what the floor repair will look like. Mine is not level, and Much rougher Than original floor. Another contractor said it was better than He typically sees. This was done several years ago. Sorry about the late review."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Not every window well has a drain installed at the base; instead, some rely on gravel at the base to naturally filter water down to the soil below. However, if water is not draining fast enough, you should either improve the gravel layer (it may have compacted since you installed it) or hire a plumber near you to install a proper drainage solution at the base of the well.

Heavy rain can affect a leach field because the extra rain can cause the groundwater level to rise. This leads the soil around the leach field to become saturated with rainwater, so it’s no longer able to take in effluent from the leach lines for final treatment. Heavy rainfall can cause the leach field to flood.

Your sump pump will discharge water through a discharge line or pipe. The discharge line should be placed at least 10–20 feet from the foundation to avoid any issues.

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 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.
