Installation Process Of French Drainage System
Installing a French Drain is an important part of improving the function and longevity of your plumbing, waterproofing, and drainage systems. While many people attempt to install French Drains by themselves, it’s often best to leave this labor-intensive job to the professionals, who have the experience and expertise necessary to get the job done correctly.ย
- The installation process involves excavating a trench and a bed deep enough to fit an appropriate drain pipe in one or both layers.ย
- The top layer should have either a filter fabric or gravel. Rounded and washed gravely will cover the fabric making up the surface of the drain assembly.ย
- A perforated sump pump pipe with openings big enough to allow water flow is then laid on top of this filter/gravel mixture followed by more soil or fill material for additional protection.ย
- Finally, all installed materials should be protected from future exposure with plastic covers over piping joints or a layer of heavy geotextiles around drains and any crawl space if desired. With proper installation, a French Drain may last for years with minimal problems, so make sure you take the time to get it done right!
How Much Does French Drain Installation Cost?
The cost of French drain installation will vary depending on a variety of factors including the type and size of drain being installed, the depth of excavation required, the soil conditions at the installation site, and any additional subcontract labor required.

Frequently
Asked Questions
A French drain cleaning is an effective way to divert standing water and moisture away from your home, but itโs important to use the right material. Gravel and rocks are often used as the main component of a French drain, but they can actually restrict the flow of water in some cases.ย
Instead, consider using perforated pipe or corrugated drainage tubing. These materials provide more efficient drainage because they not only let water pass through them but also hold them for some time thanks to their smooth surfaces and little handling of sediment.
For most residential yards, a four-inch diameter French drain is among customized solutions, as this gives enough space to accommodate large amounts of surface runoff water and allows for deep trenches to disperse the water far away from the house foundation.ย
If your area is located in Los Gatos CA, San Jose CA, or Redwood City and has consistently high rainfall, water leak, or flooding issues, you may opt for a larger-diameter French drain to ensure that it adequately handles all of the drainage needs.ย
