What Gravel Should Be Used for French Drains?

โ€ข Crushed Gravel

This is the most commonly used type of gravel in French drains because it provides excellent water flow and drainage. Additionally, crushed gravel can be shaped or cut to fit into any space, making it ideal for filling in tight spaces or corners.

โ€ข Pea Gravel

Pea gravel is another popular option because it is affordable and easy to work with. The stones are small enough to fit into narrow spaces and do not need to be cut or shaped to fit around curves or corners. However, pea gravel does not provide as much water flow as crushed gravel, so it may not be the best choice for more complex projects.

โ€ข Larger Stones

If you are looking for an even more efficient drainage system, larger stones such as river rock may be a better option than crushed gravel or pea gravel. Because these stones are larger and heavier than smaller types of gravel, they will stay in place better and provide better drainage over time. Additionally, larger stones are less likely to get moved by heavy rains or storms, which can cause clogs in the system if not taken care of quickly enough.

How Much Gravel Should Be Used For French Drain?

The amount of gravel depends on the application. Generally, three to four inches of gravel should be used if the sump pump is to be installed. However, for subsurface drainage, up to six inches of gravel will provide extra protection against clogs and flooding. With the right amount of gravel along with a good quality sump pump, you can rest assured that your French drain will last for years to come.
