French drain installation typically involves excavating a trench in the desired area, laying a perforated pipe within a gravel or crushed stone bed, and covering it with additional gravel or stone to facilitate proper drainage. The work may include assessing the site to determine the appropriate trench length, depth, and slope to ensure effective water diversion, as well as addressing any existing drainage issues or obstructions. Evaluating requests often involves understanding the property's topography, soil type, and the specific drainage problems to be resolved, along with considerations for access, existing structures, and the desired drainage outcome.
