Replacing Exterior Footing Drains

Possible Symptoms:

about the Process

Replacing exterior footing drains is an essential step in restoring proper drainage and preventing water intrusion around a foundation. Over time, original footing drains can become clogged, crushed, or deteriorated, leading to basement leaks and increased hydrostatic pressure against the foundation walls. By excavating around the foundation and installing new, properly sloped footing drains with a filter fabric and gravel backfill, water is efficiently redirected away from the structure.
