What Is a French Drain?
A French drain is a simple yet highly effective drainage system designed to move excess water away from problem areas. It consists of a perforated pipe buried in a trench filled with gravel, allowing water to flow freely and drain away from your home, yard, or foundation.

- Water pooling in your yard after heavy rain
- Soggy or muddy patches that never seem to dry
