A French drain is a pipe system equipped with a pump that channels rainwater (and excess groundwater) away from your home's foundation.
Installing a French drain helps prevent cracks in the foundation's concrete due to water pressure, as well as water infiltration and humidity in the basement.
This drainage system is buried at foundation slab height, right next to the wall where water accumulates most.
Before installing your French drain(s), we compact 20 inches of crushed stone, which provides a solid base. A geotextile membrane is also installed beneath the stones to keep soil away from the system.
It is highly recommended to apply two layers of elastomeric membrane on your concrete walls, along with a Delta membrane.
Since your excavation will already reach the foundation sill to install the French drain, our team can easily expose your concrete walls and apply these membranes.
This ensures 100% protection from water infiltration and concrete cracking, increasing the strength and durability of your foundation.
EXCAVATION PANNETON also carries out the replacement of malfunctioning French drains. If your drain is old and cracks in your concrete walls are causing water infiltration, this likely means your system needs replacing.
Additionally, musty air in the basement or white deposits on the concrete (mold) may indicate that your French drain is no longer functioning. Our team will replace it with a new system.
