Foundation Drain Installation questions, answered by experts

The frequency with which a French drain clogs depends on various factors, such as the amount of debris that enters the pipe, the quality of the French drain installation, the type of grate and filter used, and how often it is maintained. That’s why it’s recommended to clean your French drain at least once a year, whether it is clogged or not. This can prevent clogs and increase the lifespan of your drain.

The process is different for each type of drainage system. But no matter your drainage system type, you’ll have to start by digging a hole or trench. To install an effective French drain, for example, you’ll need to dig a trench, line it with filter fabric, pour gravel inside, hook up pipe connections, set the pipe, and cover it with gravel.

You can use shovels or rent a trencher, depending on the size of the trench or hole you’re digging. You generally don’t need a permit from the city to install a drainage system on your own property, but if the work involves changing a structure or electrical work, contact your municipality to check the requirements.

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 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.

Structural components—like the roof, foundation, walls, windows, and floors—should be addressed first thing when renovating a historic home. It may be appealing to start with more visible cosmetic issues, but structural problems are often the most time-consuming and costly, and dealing with them first can save you some big headaches down the road.
