Photo Album: French Drain Installation in Altamonte Springs, FL
Edward C. became worried when he discovered that the drainage system he had installed a few years ago was backing up and collecting water against his house. Consequently, he noticed voids forming alongside the foundation, and water started to seep inside his home. He reached out to LRE Foundation Repair to search for a solution. An LRE Design Specialist visited his home and inspected the issue further. The specialist suggested installing an EZ Flow French Drainage System to divert rainwater away from the home. The LRE team began excavating a trench to allow for the installation of the French drain. After placing the drain within the trench, a series of pop-up relief drains were set up on the far end of the property to redirect the water away from the foundation. After the French drain was effectively installed, Edward could relax knowing that water would no longer accumulate against his home and cause further damage to his foundation.
