THE BENEFITS OF INSTALLING A FRENCH DRAIN

Are you noticing water pooling around the base of your North Carolina home? If so, installing a French drain could be the solution you need to prevent water damage.

A French drain not only protects your house from flooding and mold growth in the basement or crawlspace but also prevents foundation cracks that can lead to expensive repairs. With a French drain, you can have peace of mind, knowing your home is safe from the harmful effects of excess water.

Efficient Drainage

Both interior and exterior French drain systems direct water away from your home. The extra water will be directed to your septic tank, a sump pump or to a space in your yard that sits lower than your house.

Reduces Risk of Crawlspace/Basement Moisture

Because French drains direct water away from the foundation, it prevents flooding in your basement or crawlspace and removes any excess water in the soil.

Our French Drain Installation Process

At Elite Moisture Solutions, we have a thorough installation process to ensure the efficiency and longevity of your French drain. We start with an evaluation of your property to determine the best location for the drain, then we carefully excavate the area and construct the drain using high-quality materials.

Our team takes great care in backfilling the area to restore the appearance of your landscaping. With our French drain installation, you can rest easy knowing that water damage is a problem of the past.

Dig a Trench

A technician will dig a trench along the foundation wall that is having a drainage issue. The dimensions of the trench will vary based on the severity of the issue.

Lay the Perforated PVC Pipe

The technician will place the perforated pipe into the trench. The pipe should always be sloped from a higher starting point to a lower ending point that is away from the home’s foundation.

Backfill the Trench with Gravel

The technician will cover the pipe with gravel. The gravel is used to filter out any sediment and reduce the chance of the pipe clogging.

I called Elite for a quote and on the same day, Chris shows up and provides an estimate before he left my house! Based on his knowledge of mold remediation, sump pumps and french drains, and his incredible professionalism - we booked him for the job. His crew was on time every day, and gave a detailed description of what would be accomplished that day and they always came through. For anyone in Downtown Raleigh or the Raleigh area, I would highly recommend Elite Moisture Solutions! read less

Nightmare scenario - Google Fiber's contractor hit our main water line with a backhoe during their network install. After a year of denying the damages (which occurred on private property - a whole other saga), their insurance adjuster finally agreed to repair/replace our water line. BUT the City of Durham REFUSED to grant them a permit to work in the right of way where they need to access our water line!  Exactly where the City granted a permit to Google to install their fiber. So around and around we went. Another year goes by. The City, Public Works Director Williams, Mayor Schewel, City Council COMPLETELY FAILED to help us. The City even sent us a DISCONNECTION notice when we tried to get the City's attention by not paying a month's water bill (>$600). The leaking water (~14,000 gallons!!!) eventually infiltrates our basement and causes a severe mold infestation throughout the crawlspace, house and attic. MOLD was everywhere, even within some of the walls and floors (original marble) which all had to come out. Ben, Chris and their crews thankfully took on the job and helped us tremendously. The crews worked so hard and were incredibly thorough. It's tough to go through a mold remediation and the crews brought humor and good attitudes with them everyday!! Ben was exceptionally knowledgable, supportive and patient. There was a lot to deal with and Ben helped us navigate through it all. He was there for us each and every step of the way. After 3 rounds of remediation, ALL the mold was finally GONE (as was most of our stuff... sigh). MOLD FREE IS A VERY HAPPY DAY! Months after the mold was gone, Ben took time out of his busy schedule to meet onsite with Google's insurance agent. He is continuing to help during the lawsuit we have had to file against Google Fiber, their contractors and the City of Durham. You can TRUST Ben, Chris and their crews. They have EXPERTISE, INTEGRITY and most of all, THEY CARE!! read less

				I am a Property Manager for several commercial buildings. I had a foot of sitting water in my crawl space. Chris and his team were very professional and did a thorough job.  They went above and beyond to ensure that my issue was fully addressed. I would highly recommend Elite Moisture Solutions and will definitely use them going forward.
