Let the drainage experts install your French Drain system today!

Is your basement constantly wet or damp? A French Drain system is the solution you need. At King Rooter & Plumbing, we specialize in installing the perfect drain channel system to solve any type of moisture problems you may be experiencing. Whether you have an older home or a new construction, our French Drain system can effectively remove excess water and prevent damage to your property.

Here’s How It Works:
The French Drainage system is based on the principle of gravity, where water always flows downhill via the easiest route possible. Our system uses a slightly sloped trench filled with gravel and a pipe that diverts water away from your basement to the outside. To ensure maximum efficiency, a sump pump is installed to pump the water outside.

Named after Henry French, a Massachusetts farmer who wrote a book about farm drainage in 1859, this drainage system has been proven to be effective in preventing water damage in basements.

French Drain Installation: Why should you install a French Drain?

Do you live in an area with frequent heavy rainfall or have a basement that is prone to flooding? A French drain system can be a smart investment to protect your home from water damage. Here are some reasons why you should consider installing a French drain:

  • Prevent flooding: French drains are designed to divert water away from your foundation, preventing flooding in your basement or crawlspace. This can help you avoid costly water damage repairs.
  • Control groundwater: If you live in an area with a high water table, or your property is located on a slope, groundwater can be a major problem. A French drain can help control the flow of groundwater and prevent it from seeping into your home.
  • Protect your home's foundation: Excess water can damage your home's foundation, leading to structural problems over time. A French drain can help prevent this by keeping the soil around your foundation dry.
  • Increase property value: Installing a French drain system can increase your home's value, as it is a valuable investment in protecting your property from water damage.

At King Rooter & Plumbing, we specialize in French drain installation in the Denver metro area. Our experienced team can assess your home's needs and design a custom solution to protect your home from flooding and groundwater.

A French Drain is a trench filled with gravel and a perforated pipe that diverts water away from a specific area. It is used to prevent water from entering basements, crawl spaces, and other areas prone to flooding.

A French Drain works by intercepting water as it enters a specific area, such as a basement or crawl space. The trench is sloped to allow water to flow towards the perforated pipe, which then carries the water away from the area and deposits it into a safe drainage location.

It is necessary to install a French Drain when there is a risk of water entering a specific area, such as a basement or crawl space. This may occur due to heavy rainfall, flooding, or issues with the surrounding landscape.

The time it takes to install a French Drain depends on the size of the area and the complexity of the installation. In general, a French Drain installation can take anywhere from one to three days.

While it is possible to install a French Drain yourself, it is recommended to hire a professional plumbing service. French Drain installations require specialized knowledge and equipment to ensure proper drainage and prevent potential issues.

The cost to install a French Drain varies depending on the size of the area, the complexity of the installation, and the specific materials used. It is recommended to contact a professional plumbing service for a quote.

A French drain has many benefits, such as:

  • Effective drainage: One of the best things about a French drain is that it can move water away from your house or foundation.
  • Affordable - A French drain is surprisingly cheap when you compare it to other ways to keep water out of a basement.
  • Changes your lawn - You can turn a damp, spongy lawn into a garden or a place for your children to play.
  • Fast - It's not hard to put in a French drain, and the process doesn't take too long, depending on how complicated the drain is and how big it needs to be.

A French drain doesn't need much regular maintenance. But over time, dirt and leaves can get stuck in the holes of the drainpipe, making it less effective. To avoid this, you can clean out the French drain and snake it, or have it cleaned by our plumbing professionals once a year.
