Thank you for everything you have done Robert by educating the home owner about down spouts, drains, french drains and the correct way to install and run the correct drainage systems. One again A+ video. Thank you so much. 👍🏻

Great breakdown and explanations! Simple, clear, and useful. Excellent demonstration of why the original design was flawed and how your design addressed multiple issues. I especially appreciate your mentioning that it is more work to set up, but that the results outweigh the labor

about to put in a french drain and have a gutter dump into it. I was planning on putting in a T or Y for cleanout, but didnt consider a catch basin. Glad I watched this before filling anything in!

Great video! This information is very helpful to me, now I understand why and how rain water is backing up and flowing over the gutters on the side of the house that has a french drain. When it stops raining I'm going to fix that problem. Thanks, Joyce from Huntsville Alabama. God bless! 😊

This makes so much sense. I see so many landscape contrtactors that charge a lot of money do that exact same thing of jus stubbing up the drain pipe. I have seen their jobs where they dont even put an end cap of some mind on the end. Next time I fid one of these when I am doing lighting I am just going to fix it while we are there

Thanks for the informational videos! I’ve been watching a bunch as I’m in the process of redoing my drainage in central Ohio.

This an excellent video for us DYI folks! Thanks

This is great, I'm pretty sure I have this exact problem, black corrugated pipe, slopes down then back up, clogged... thought it was mud but I bet it's shingle gravel... thanks for this video!

All the more reason to have a metal roof on the house. I renewed my roof with a metal one and after 9 years i hardly have much crap in my drains except from small pine needles and small tree stuff , which most is caught by the RWL guards, works great.

Amazing. Where I live in Australia, it is law to run the "storm-water" to the street gutter with solid wall pipes . Most of the perforated pipes are used to collect ground seepage. They are wrapped in a one-way cloth to prevent soil ingression.

Years ago I did Foundation water proofing. A lot of water problems came from downspout over flowing right at the base of down spouts. Get the water far away from the foundation. Wish more contractors and DIY would see this👍

Very detailed information. Thank you.

Thank you. I was thinking of doing this in my yard and glad that I didn't just rush into it and do it the wrong way.

I never realized putting in a French drain was so technical. We don’t have gutters but was contemplating on putting a French drain around my shop to prevent undermining the foundation. Now, I’ll be checking out more of your videos
