How to Drain Water Out of a Backyard with a Gravity System NO Pumps
For this job we are going to use gravity to drain our system instead of a sump pump. In other applications we run the discharge line either down the fence or down the house, dump it and let it just go down the green belt over the sidewalk into the curb. Now if we could not get this to gravity drain to daylight we would put a sump pump in, but in this application we don’t need to.

I'm just a little confused as to that very end where does all the water end up going at that end where all the pipes joined together under the rocks?
That’s going to be One Heck of a lot of water 💦 coming out of the outlet at the curb ! 🇨🇦
Do u guys ever answer questions for people in the south?
If I remember correctly from your previous videos, you mention to avoid connecting a French drain system to a roof runoff, unless the French drain is at a higher elevation. Hope I'm not remembering incorrectly, and if not, was the elevation of the different roof runoff systems at a lower elevation to all the French drains?
Hi. Love your videos! Do you know anyone in Kansas City that can help with our yard drainage problems?
Your videos are inspirational and informative. I love it.
As a matter of principle i never give a thumbs up on videos with hidden like / dislike. This decision of mine really hurts every time i watch one of your videos 🥸But you will do just fine without one less thumbs up 🙂Best wishes to you and a lot of success ❤
Something to think about, offer customer $50 gift card to send you high quality footage of outlets during a rain event.
French Drain Man , wonderful vlog & very insightful !
This style of drain pipe was used around ' footings & foundations ' of
New residential construction in the mid 70's in North West Indiana .
Credits to the crew & all involved ! 👍
* THIS is a Classic example of '' Buyer Beware '' , MAKE SURE you have Qualified
experienced people evaluate your property BEFORE the Final SALE IF possible .
What would be the co$t$ involved for THIS Job as a ' random base ' = for example ,
For figuring what approach to take toward financing / payment for all work & materials
permits , inspection fees , certifications . . . . ? For the state of Michigan .
Can you provide a final costs dollar amount ? '' Ball – park '' , Not exact .
This will have impact on the sale / resale price IF issues such as these are found
Prior to a sale , In all fairness .
Good luck Sherwood Landscape ! 💪👍
How do you dig under the sidewalk?
I wouldve loved to see the finished job 🎉
