"Humprheys was subcontracted by another company that is working on my garage. First appointment had to be rescheduled due to me. Reschedule with no problems. Danny and James showed up on time and got the install done in one day. Work looks great, furnace performs as expected. I would hire them again next time I need work done."

"My Buddy The Plumber tech Jared Boone was great. We called them up on a Friday night at 7pm and he showed up within a half hour. We had sewer water backed up in our basement. He had us back to normal in no time. He snaked it out and we haven't had any problems since. He is very knowlegable and efficient."

"We contacted Eagle Creek Landscapes because we were displeased with the work of another service. Darrin gave us an estimate and explained what we needed to correct our driveway problems. True to his word, Darrin and crew arrived on time and completed the job in 1 day. When the job was completed, the entire front of our home had been transformed. Not only did they remove the original stone from the driveway and put in a finer gravel, they also corrected some drainage problems without us asking. <br /> Also, Darrin and his crew took the time to answer all of our questions regarding landscaping. <br /> We highly recommend Eagle Creek Landscapes! <br /> <br /> <br />"

"We had 5 bids on this job and I was amazed at the variation in price and comments on what could and couldn't be done in our home.  The salesman, John, from Service Experts did the most thorough evaluation of our home of any of them, and was also confident that his crew could correctly vent a 98% efficiency furnace given existing constraints.  He did the best job at explaining our options and details of the installation.   While this was not the cheapest bid we received, we believed that we would get the best installation.  He claimed that they have many long time employees who are paid better than most other contractors, and that they are all trained and certified.   We were anxious to get the job done before leaving town, and he made some calls and got us scheduled for the next day.  A crew of 8 showed up, on time, and installed 2 furnaces and an air conditioner (during a winter storm), within 8 hours.  They were professional and courteous.  They explained everything about the installation and operation of the system.  We were very impressed with the professionalism and quality of work by this company and will use them again."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Saint George, UT

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.
