How to Install Drainage Properly 

One of the most important aspects of proper home maintenance is ensuring that water is able to drain away from your foundation. Without proper drainage, water can seep into the foundation, causing cracking and other damage. Fortunately, installing a drainage system is relatively simple and can be done in a few easy steps.

First, you will need to determine where the water is coming from and how best to channel it away from your home. If you have gutters, make sure they are clean and free of debris. You may also need to excavate a trench around the perimeter of your home to allow water to flow away from the foundation.

Once you have determined how to best route the water away from your home, you can begin installing the drainage system. Perforated pipe is ideal for this purpose, as it allows water to flow through while still filtering out debris. Be sure to lay the pipe with the holes facing down so that water can easily drain through. After the pipe is in place, cover it with gravel or small rocks to keep it in place and help with drainage.

With a little effort, you can easily install a drainage system that will protect your home from water damage. By taking these simple steps, you can rest assured that your home will be safe from harm. However, you must keep in mind that installing drainage is not an easy task. Most of the time, it requires professional help. Big Easy Landscaping can help you install drainage properly.

Benefits of a Drain

A drain is a pipe installed in a home to remove excess water. This is different from a sewage pipe, which removes wastewater. A home needs both types of drains. A drainage pipe handles the water that comes from rainfall or from watering the garden. It carries this water away from the house so that it will not flood the basement or damage the foundation of the house.

Installing drainage pipes correctly can be difficult and it is important to hire a professional plumber to install them correctly. Even a small mistake can cause major problems down the road. Once installed, however, a drainage pipe requires little maintenance and will last for many years. As a result, it is an affordable and effective way to protect your home from water damage.

Installing a Yard Drainage System

A yard drainage system is a network of pipes and other materials that are installed underground. The purpose of a yard drainage system is to collect and manage water runoff. Yard drainage systems are particularly important in areas with high rainfall or where there is a risk of flooding.

There are two main types of yard drainage systems: those that are installed above ground and those that are installed below ground.

• Above-ground systems are usually less expensive to install, but they may be less effective at managing water runoff.
• Below-ground systems are more expensive to install, but they are generally more effective at managing water runoff.

To install a yard drainage system, it is necessary to excavate a trench around the perimeter of the yard. A pipe is then placed in the trench and connected to a catch basin or sump. The yard drainage system can be connected to the city sewer system, or it can discharge into a stormwater management system.
