Wow, this is exactly what I’m dealing with. Good… just keep cleaning 😫. Nice job
811 rarely marks everything. Great install!
🙏
that's a great looking install, however you did tell them that looks like an overflowing gutter issue, right?
Great video! My question: What is the little stapler thingy that I’ve seen you use to close the fabric and where can I get one? Thanks 🙂
Great video 💪
Excellent. Love it.
great english for french drain joke atempt, good install succces

Great video. If gravel is on top do you need to close up the fabric or just have it open?
There add staples, to hold it together, and not overlap.
I just watched another video about how it is a common misconception to burrito wrap cloth around the system... and how wrapping cloth can slow the drain and clog it worse! Here is that link:

There are many types of geo fabrics on the market. So if you use the wrong one then yes you will have problems. To build a French drain correctly you need a good non woven geo textile fabric that surrounds the stone and the pipe. The fabric is a soil separator so that it does not mix with the stone over time and clog the voids in the stone making it where water cannot pass through to your perforated pipe. Geo fabric is used in road construction and by developers for drainage applications all over the USA and the world. If geo fabric didn’t work these municipalities would not use it. But like I said earlier you have to use the correct one for the application.

Food for thought. Thanks for your opinion on the matter. You sound like you've had lots of experience working with this medium.
I'm curious now and think I'll research the history of French drains next, to see how they developed, and how successful geo cloth is in other areas of the world.
Cheers! 🙂
