Recently Oklahoma Drainage Installed a French Drain as part of a Drainage System in Mid-West City Oklahoma.
Our customer had a back porch Sunroom. Every time he had a hard rain, Water would run in one door and out the other. An indoor creek across his Sunroom.
Installing A French Drain
We installed a French Drain in front of the South Door. It was 26 feet long and ran from a gutter downspout which it was connected to, in front of the South Door and along the house covering the entire “Low” Area. Then we connected 4 inch ADS Solid Drain pipe to the French Drain and ran down hill around the corner of the house to the street.

Channel Drain
Setting the concrete around the channel drain
Once the 4-inch solid drainpipe was connected to the French Drain and the two gutter down spouts, a pop-up emitter was installed to release the water at the street.
The next step was to cover the drain pipe with dirt and put the sod back in place on top of the pipe. There was about 8 wheelbarrows of dirt left over that was displaced by the drain pipe and the French Drain. The extra dirt was scooped up and hauled away.
Moving Sprinkler Heads
While installing the drainage system, it was necessary to move two sprinkler heads that were in the way of the drain pipe installation. This was no problem. Installing drainage systems and French Drains for folks who have a sprinkler system is very common. Moving Sprinkler heads or pipes sometimes is necessary. We always leave the sprinkler system in complete working order and we discuss any changes in the sprinkler system with the customer before we do it to make sure that everyone is on the same page. In most cases the customer can’t tell that we made any changes to the sprinkler system at all.
[…] A Surface Drain has a grate that sits on top of a basin. The basin is underground. A Drain Pipe is connected underground to an outlet on the Drain Basin. Storm-Water Drains through the grate into the Drain Basin. Once in the Drain Basin, water travels out of the basin through a Drain Pipe. The Storm-Water continues downhill in an underground Drain Pipe to an exit point. […]
