Flood Zone in Front of Home
This particular area of the home had experienced frequent flooding due to the property being positioned below sea level. The persistent flooding had been a recurring issue for the homeowner and their family.
Soil Excavation for Drainage System Installation
The first step in the installation process involves excavating soil around the front of the home to create a proper placement for the French Drain system.
French Drain Installation
After removing the soil and a portion of the concrete driveway, the French Drain system is placed within the excavated trench.
Channel Drain Installation
A section of the concrete driveway is excavated to accommodate the installation of a channel drain, which will connect to the nearby French Drainage system and alleviate the ongoing flooding issues.
Pop-up Relief Drain
The French drain, positioned just beneath the surface of the yard, is connected to a pop-up relief drain located at the far end of the property. This system is designed to effectively divert the collected rainwater away from the home.
Complete Drainage Solution
After the successful installation of the driveway channel drain and the interconnected French Drain system, the homeowner's flooding issues have been effectively resolved.
