Divert Water Away From Your Foundation and Basement With a French Drain

A french drain is a trench that redirects surface water and groundwater away from an area. It is usually filled with gravel or rocks or a perforated pipe. The purpose of french drains is to prevent groundwater or collected surface water from permeating and damaging foundations and divert the water from where it should not be.

How Do French Drains Work?

French drain systems are designed to be installed underground. The water runs into a trench filled with gravel, then into a perforated pipe at the bottom of the trench. The water then runs freely through the pipe, which results in a safe distance from the surface and from your house.

Exterior and Interior French Drain

There are 2 different ways to install a French drain – buried around the external side of the foundation wall or beneath the basement floor on the inside perimeter.

Each drainage system is customized to meet the unique needs of your home and property. We offer affordable French Drain and basement solutions while preserving your existing lawn and landscape.

The work was completed on time and seems to have corrected the problem with the water in our basement. Mike gave us the lowest price of any other estimate (we had 4 other contractors look at the basement).

Thomas W.

Showed up on time and completed work early. Was almost $1000 less than their competitors with almost the process and warranty.

Mark E.

Excellent and honest service provided by Mike and his staff. Mike was knowledgeable, explained the work to be done, and quoted a reasonable price (very much in line with 3 other estimates received). The work was started and finished on time and in a most professional manner. My basement is now dry for the first time in 26 years and I could not be happier with my decision to go with ARK Basement Services.
