"Outstanding work and value. Andy was quick to respond and came out the next day to assess what we needed to do to improve the drainage in our crawlspace. The home is built on a sloped lot. Andy suggested a full perimeter drain install around the foundation. The work also included complete replacement of the vapor barrier. All work was performed efficiently and Andy backed it up with a lifetime warranty. I couldn't be happier with the end result and would highly recommend Andy and his crew."

"Alex is incredibly honest, pragmatic and helpful. He assessed our community’s potential need and proceeded to discuss any potential restrictions on drainage with the county. We are restricted due to the infrastructure in the proposed drainage area - his thoroughness lost him work but gained our respect. We will look to him for any and all similar projects in the future."

.Job started 3 days late due to delays on a previous job.

Crew arrived on time Monday, 6/29 and installed braces under the foundation on the front, north side of the house and front south side.  re-leveled foundation which had settled slightly over the years.  This was done manually.

Crews also installed pop up drains and conduit to allow water to flow away from the house as it was accumulating in the crawl space, causing some issues.  This was done on all sides of the house and interconnected all of our downspouts.

Finally, underneath the house, crews installed braces to better support interior walls and stabilize the floor, which was flexing somewhat.  While in code, it was annoying and this was taken care of as well as re-leveling the floor in the kitchen and dining areas.  They also installed fresh vapor barrier plastic in the entire crawlspace

This work took one day longer than scheduled, however, despite some additional purchases, there was not additional cost to us.  I am very pleased with the work performed under extreme heat conditions.  I would use Matvey again.

"RainPros sealed and installed drainage to stop water leakage through our basement wall. They were very competent and professional, and handled the job with a minimum of disruption to us. They kept us informed as the project progressed and at the end restored the site to its original condition. I highly recommend them."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Gig Harbor, WA

Expect a well-built French drain to last 30 to 40 years. By channeling both surface- and ground-water away from your foundation, the system relieves hydrostatic pressure and helps prevent costly structural damage. Choose a pipe with a quality cloth filter to keep sediment out and extend the drain’s life. A quick annual inspection and routine cleanouts will keep water flowing freely, ensuring the system continues to protect your home for years to come.

Most French drains sit two feet below grade, but depth ultimately depends on the problem you’re solving. For puddling rainwater or snowmelt, a shallow curtain drain at lawn level often does the trick. To handle rising groundwater, pros dig deeper, down to the footing, and run the pipe beneath the basement slab. A drainage contractor will determine the optimal depth for your specific soil conditions and water issues.

A properly installed interior French drain captures water at the slab, channels it to a sump pit, and directs it safely outside, preventing basement floods before they occur. Because the pipe sits just under the floor edge, a plumber can reach it easily for cleaning or repairs. Pairing the drain with a reliable sump pump gives you the best long-term protection.

Hire a contractor who installs drainage systems every day—typically a foundation specialist, drainage contractor, experienced landscaper, or plumber with waterproofing experience. These pros understand slope, soil, and local codes, and they have the equipment to trench safely around utilities. Ask for references and photos of recent jobs to be sure they can design a system that keeps water off your foundation for decades.

Once the drain is in, patch the yard by reseeding bare spots or replacing plants the crew removed. Inside, look for ways to add value—finishing the basement or upgrading interior waterproofing while the space is open often costs less now than later. Schedule a quick annual checkup to flush sediment and confirm the pipe and sump pump are clear. Consistent maintenance ensures the drain functions properly and protects your investment.

Most policies don’t cover the cost of repairing a French drain itself, but they may provide coverage for water damage if the system fails. Coverage varies by insurer, so be sure to read the fine print or contact your agent before any issues arise. If you live in a high-risk flood zone, consider a separate flood policy to close the gap. Knowing your coverage in advance helps you budget for repairs and avoid unexpected costs.
