Six inch French Drain Installation, Oklahoma City, Norman, Moore, Yukon.
Oklahoma Drainage, Servicing all of Central and Western Oklahoma since 1993.
Edmond
is one of the communities in Central Oklahoma that Oklahoma Drainage services. We have installed almost a thousand French Drains in the Edmond community in the past 34 years.
Edmond has many hills and valleys. Many Neighborhoods are built on hillsides. This causes many Drainage Problems. We have installed French Drains by themselves and as a part of Drainage Systems to protect Driveways, Sidewalks, Foundations all over Edmond. French Drains may be installed in Flower Beds or grassy areas too. French Drains when installed correctly can provide many years of property protection and Piece of Mind.
Oklahoma City French Drain
Here is a description of other recent work.
A little bit North of Downtown Oklahoma City, Oklahoma Drainage installed a 6 inch French Drain between two businesses which were less than three feet apart. The French Drain went between a Law Firm and a Tire shop. Water was leaking through the walls of both businesses. Gutters between the two establishments were dumping a huge amount of water. We installed a 6 inch French Drain between the two.
It took a long time to get the dirt out of the trench for the French Drain. It was a very tight fit. We had to use a little red wagon to haul out the dirt for the French Drain and haul back in the crushed limestone for the French Drain. It looked a little silly, but it was the only thing we could find that was narrow enough to fit between the buildings. A French Drain that normally would take 1 day to install took three.
The French Drain
had a Double Exit Point. This means that once water entered the French Drainpipe, it could run South to the street or it could run North to the alley. To exit points greatly increases the water capacity for any French Drain.
Along the course of the French Drain, we connected two large gutters directly into the Drainpipe.
Once in place, the French Drain eliminated all the water that was leaking into the two buildings.
