"I called Kelly from Angi and he was very quick and fair-minded so we agreed to work together. All went very well and Kelly stuck to his word despite finding a couple of minor unexpected challenges. His work was excellent and solved the problem completely. I would hire again and would recommend to others. My drain has not worked this well in 10 years. Thanks to Kelly."

"They (Jeff and Joe) arrived early in the day, earlier than I had hoped for. And attempted to unclog the drain from within the wash room. That did not work.



He informed he could attempt to unclog the drain from the vent stack to the washer but that the agreement with AHS would not cover that cost. He told me it would ne and additional $225.00, but that if he was unable to unclog the drain it would not cost me anything. I agreed to that. They worked around three hours and were eventually successful in unclogging the drain, very happy with the results, worth the cost.



The workers were respectful, on-time, professional and did a great job. I will definitely use Drain Go Pluming again.

"He did an excellent job. They got the old one out very quickly and got the new one installed. It was upstairs and in the attic so it was not an easy job. In two hours, they were done. There was one minor issue that came up and he came right back out on a Sunday morning and took care of it. I would highly recommend them and I would definitely hire them again."

FAQs for basement drainage channels installation projects in Star, MS

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.
