"Before contract signed Chris agreed to leave a 3 ft perimeter around the build site for drainage, and to move the excavated dirt to specified area. He did neither of these things which caused erosion and cave-in. He compromised our cement driveway by digging under it. He refused to listen to anything I told him I wanted done. He had children onsite (11 yrs old), one of his employees came to work intoxicated, with sandals on and smoked weed onsite. We have pictures. Constantly asking for money. He left his "crew" to finish as soon as we paid final payment. The crew cut the relief joint before the concrete was dry so it has chipped and concrete truck cracked our driveway in multiple places. Chris was supposed to be guiding him. A reputable concrete company inspected the job today, giving us an estimate of $16,500 to fix everything that Chris did wrong, starting with busting out the concrete and starting over. Chris was very arrogant and just would not listen to us and did it his way."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Irmo, SC
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.
