Enhance Your Home’s Resale Value with a French Drainage System

 

French drain tile installation can directly increase the value of a property in the following ways:

 

  • Preventing Water Damage: French drains efficiently divert water so that it does not collect around your property’s foundation. This is important since excess water leads to foundation cracks, basement flooding, and other costly water damage. By sparing your property from these issues, French drains render it more valuable and desirable to prospective buyers.

 

  • Improving Drainage: Poor drainage is a common problem for properties, especially for those located in areas with high rainfall or water tables. French drains are an effective means of improving the drainage system by collecting and redirecting excess water from your property. This helps avoid waterlogged areas and soil erosion, making your property more functional and attractive.

 

  • Improving Curb Appeal: A tidy and good-looking property has a better chance of appealing to prospective buyers and selling for more money. French drains, when installed professionally, are unobtrusive and integrate flawlessly into the landscape. They do away with the necessity of ugly standing water or wet spots, making your property look clean and well-manicured.

 

  • Increasing Usable Space: Poorly drained properties typically have limited usable space due to water collection. By installing French drains, you can regain previously unusable basement area, crawl space, or sections of your lawn. This increased usable space increases the value of your property and provides more options for potential buyers.

 

  • Lowering Maintenance Costs: French drains give you relief from water problems, which translates to lower spending on maintenance and repairs. By preventing water damage, you can save on foundation repair, basement waterproofing, mold remediation, and other problems that can occur. This cost benefit can make your property more appealing to buyers and increase its value.

 

Enhance Your Home’s Protection: Interior French Drain System Installation Services

 

Interior French drains consist of a perforated pipe, but it’s installed around the perimeter of your basement floor. Much like exterior French drains, the perforated pipe is covered around gravel to filter out debris and dirt. The drain then collects water from the basement wall joint as it enters and carries it to a sump pump basin where the sump pump removes it away from the foundation of your home.

 

Installing interior drain tile in your current home is not as disruptive and labor intensive as exterior drainage tile. 

 

Maintenance of interior drain tile is easier because the pipe is much more accessible. The pipe is less prone to getting clogged because it’s not buried underground. Another advantage is that interior drainage systems are protected from the outdoor elements, such as tree roots growing into the French drainage system. These flood control systems can be installed year-round, and even in the middle of winter here in Illinois.

Seal Your Home Against Water Damage with Professional Exterior Drain System Installation

 

French drain or exterior drain tile, or seepage tile, or a perimeter drain is the name given to exterior drainage tile. Exterior drainage tile is installed during new home construction but can be installed at any time. Exterior drainage tile is an out-of-door flooding control system of yard drainage in which the outside of the base of your home is covered to collect excess water. It then directs this subsurface water so that it does not move through the soil that comes into contact with your home. Exterior French drain tile is one of the most effective methods for managing unwanted water on your property and for avoiding flooding inside and within your home.

 

If the drainage tile system is not incorporated during new construction, your area around your house needs to be excavated in order to be able to successfully have the French drain installed. Keep in mind, this also includes digging up and landscaping that will be along with the drain tile system path that needs to be placed around your house. This seepage tile drainage system will funnel the water into your sump pump pit and have it pumped out and rerouted away from your home foundation. This type of flood control will properly distribute all waste water which may be causing any type of flooding issue in or around your house.
