"These guys are the kings of the hard sell. They pushed me to sign a contract before they'd even delivered the report showing what work would be done. Reputable companies don't discourage you from getting competitive bids, nor do they push you to "sign right now" without going over the details. And to add insult to injury, they NEVER stop calling you, no matter how many times you ask them to stop."

Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, window wells should be filled with at least 12 inches of clean, coarse gravel. Gravel helps the water naturally drain into the earth below. Maintain the gravel over time; if it becomes contacted or mixed with soil, it can more easily clog and cause flooding issues.

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.

Houses can be saved after floods if the flood damage is minor, the water recedes quickly, and you take steps to ensure the structural integrity of the building. Knowing whether a structure is safe after a flood and which belongings and materials you can save is challenging, so always rely on a professional to advise you. Your insurance company and local water mitigation and flood restoration companies can offer guidance. As with any construction project, you’ll want to hire licensed and insured contractors, compare bids, and proceed carefully.

The amount of soil you’ll need around your foundation depends on a variety of factors, but in general, you want a 6-inch decline over the first 10 feet extending out from your foundation. How much soil it will take to achieve that will depend on the current grade of the yard, how much foundation is exposed, and the size of your home.

When installing your yard drainage system, consider the slope of your property. Drainage trenches must slope away from your yard by at least a 1% slope to drain properly

Also, consider how much water you need to drain. If your yard holds a lot of water in the winter, consider installing multiple drains to keep the area dry efficiently. Each municipality has different limits for how much water you can drain off your property. 

Before digging, always call 811. Even if you’re only digging a few inches, you could sever a gas or sewage line. A cut line is a serious safety hazard.
