French drains are a time-tested solution for removing excess water from your property.
How Do French Drains Work?
French drains drastically improve the quality of your landscape and property by managing proper water levels. They typically consist of sloped trenches covered in gravel. The trenches are aligned with a perforated pipe, which carries unwanted water to a designated location, like a ditch, a street, or another desired location. They’re usually sloped by one inch for every eight feet the pipe travels through the trench. This ensures that the water will continue to flow out of the pipe to the specified location.
How Much Does a French Drain Installation Cost?
Good news! French drain installation on Long Island is affordable and relatively inexpensive when compared to other drainage solutions.
The factors involved with determining a price point for installation typically includes any type of material that needs to be replaced or dug through, the size of the drain, where the drain is placed, the type of material used, and the amount of labor involved. Our promise is that there will never be hidden fees, we will always be upfront and honest about the cost, and any changes to the work we do. We’ll never suggest any work that we feel you don’t need.
Depending on the process of installation, you could pay as little as $400, and up to $5,000. Sometimes more, sometimes less. We understand that the number range isn’t even close in price point, but that’s because installation is truly contingent on what we assess the project to be. There’s no “one-size-fits-all” in the equation of installation price. We wouldn’t want you to pay more for a project if you don’t need to.
In summary, it might be time to look into a French drain system if you’re experiencing some drainage issues. It can save you the hassle of dealing with major excessive water issues in the future, like mold, water damage, pest control, and flooding. A French drain installation on Long Island is relatively inexpensive when matched with other standing water solutions. Plus, if installed correctly, the drain can last and be reliable for decades before needing any repair or maintenance.
French Drain Maintenance
Because French drains are dug into a yard’s ground, soil and mud blockages can occur. We ask that homeowners periodically check on the function and quality of their French drain. The easiest way to check on your drain’s functionality is to look around your yard or basement.
