Absolutely. You can combine drainage installation with many other kinds of projects, such as building a new home, constructing a major addition, or installing an irrigation system. Since excavation is already underway, combining tasks can save you time and money by minimizing labor and material expenses and ensuring seamless integration of multiple systems.
Make sure your contractor is licensed and insured by checking their credentials. Ask for a detailed written estimate outlining every aspect of your drainage system, including how they plan to address specific problem areas in your yard. You can also ask if they have a warranty for their work. Additionally, review feedback from their previous customers to confirm the quality of their work.
It depends on your specific water management needs. A French drain is a passive system that redirects water away from your home without mechanical assistance. A sump pump actively removes water when it reaches a certain level. Often, using both systems together provides the best defense against water intrusion, but a pro can give you specific advice for your home and yard.
Your contractor starts by mapping and digging a trench with at least a 1% slope so water can run off freely. Next, they’ll line the trench with filter fabric, add gravel, and lay the drainpipe to keep water moving. Contractors use specialized equipment to complete each step and ensure compliance with local regulations. This systematic approach creates a robust solution that effectively directs water away from your home.
A proper slope is essential for an effective drainage system installation. Drainage trenches must be engineered with a minimum 1% slope to ensure water flows immediately away from your home without hindrance. Adequate grading increases the system’s capacity to handle heavy water volumes and eliminates pooling. Always verify local guidelines and contact utility services before excavation to ensure safety and compliance.
