Hi Robert, I’ve been watching yard drainage videos for years, and the algorithm finally sent me to you couple years ago. You are by-far the best drainage professional out there. Really enjoy your videos & content. Your guys are the hardest working, plus DO IT RIGHT ONLY team of workers out there. Keep em comin!!
Thank you
Thank you from Jacksonville, FL FDM is helping us in spades.
Great interview. It is really helpful to hear discussion from others and see how it relates to your work. Also very interesting stuff about the sump pump pushing up against the soil beneath it. Never thought about that. Makes a lot of sense.
Thank you for watching and contributing.
The only problem I see with the corrugated vs the PVS is the PVC has a smooth bottom which I like cause if anything gets in there leaves,dirt whatever I think water has a better chance of pushing it out vs the corrugated bottom it tends to get stuck in the ridges part of the pipe. I do think it’s important what you said about where the pipe daylights . If the water can’t get out and keep moving I don’t care which pipe you use it’s going to fail. Great video and I learn a ton from your channel. Have a good week

Good points. Yes it would seem even a few drops of water would find its way down easily. But these drains start their real work in moderate rain. Once the water starts to move it surpasses the ridges and flows the same amount. A small amount of turbulence is actually helpful to clean the pipe I’ve noticed. I found most of the success comes down to the installer. Often contractors take for granted the flat bottom and don’t take time to bed the trench perfectly with grade. They assume the pipe can just be higher on one side and lower on the other and not do the proper dirt work. Then the thin wall PVC bends under stress of the weight on top because it didn’t have a solid bed. Also i see often 3” tees without catch basins. As well often no glue on the fittings. When the ground freezes and shifts is another problem I’ve seen. I never cared for the 10’ lengths either, too many couplers and the roots always get in I’ve seen. The 100’ pieces are great. Corrugated got a bad name from the cheap single wall ADS and rightfully so. This pipe is hard and super durable.
@@brentbennett8577in your last sentence when you write "this pipe is durable," which pipe are you referring to? I'm assuming not the corrugated since you wrote negatively in the prior sentence. Please clarify
Recycled black corrugated.
HDPE is not strong. Royal Blue corrugated HDPE is virgin material, it is very strong.
Excellent video brother
Thank you
I used to deliver carloads of plastic pellets to a company that made milk jugs. The milk jugs were palletized and the pallets would be 8’ tall. They would then fill 53’ rail containers for shipping. If you could determine how many rolls fill a 53’ container you’d probably save on shipping
We already have that in place. 130 coils per 53 ft semi. Contractors all over the United States are saving big on shipping.

@@FRENCHDRAINMAN that’s pretty cool. The only bigger option is what we called “auto parts” box cars. That’s what they were most commonly used for, but I’ve hauled them full of hay bales. Those were 86’ high cube cars, but you’d need a track to park the car on for loading and unloading.
great job
Can you refer me to your video showing how to cover the solid 4” pipe after 2 French drain lines are connected to it with a y- connector after the fabric ends please? It will be running in my front lawn and will be covered with sod. Thank you.

Can you put artificial grass over the drains?
Yes, you can, and it works really, really well.
Can you refer me to someone in San Diego? I have some stucco bubbling out due to moisture after this super rainy winter and been meeting with different companies. Im not sure who is best qualified; a landscaper, an irrigation specialist. I had a company called Construction and Design come by and it was very pricey and he was talking about installing 18 inch wide french drains and another company E Drain said a 3 inch french drain would be fine. Such a disparity. I dont who to trust. Seems more complicated than meets the eye. Started thinking I just need rain gutters and that would be enough but Im just not sure and who is most knowledgeable because the company specializing in drains will tell you I need a drain while a rain gutter company will tell me I need a rain gutter. Who is best to fugure out a gameplan for my situation? The stucco bubbling is only in the front and back and rain gutters only go on the side of the house so Im not sure how that helps.
Yes, call 248-505-3065 main office
Only in Cali will they regulate plumbing pipes.
Regulations always start there and spread throughout the states.
@FRENCHDRAINMAN which is unfortunate because they are a single party state full of environmental wackos. The regulations they co e up with are mostly junk science and snake oil.
“Commiefornia”, not doing well these days!
