A common issue many property owners face is poor drainage. If you have a drainage issue and ignore it, you are more likely to look at costly property damages like flooding, foundation and structural damage, mold growth, and so on. Therefore, to prevent further damage by drainage issues you might consider installing a French drain.
At Summit Waterproofing Solutions, we offer you a fully functioning french drain installation service. We are your local basement waterproofing specialists who have all the solutions for any kind of basement issues related to water intrusion in Aldie, Boston, Middleburg, Ruby, Warrenton, and throughout Northern Virginia.
Despite the effectiveness of driving water away from your basement, a French drain clogs over time by soil and dirt. Even if it doesn't clog, a new french drain needs to be reinstalled after every 10 years. Unclogging and re-installing a French drain, both involve manpower and digging the soil up, costing you a lot of money. On the other hand, GrateDrain™ is an internal drainage system. It is installed along the interior perimeter of the basement to capture water when it enters and diverts away. It doesn't take much time to install GrateDrain™ and the whole system needs small maintenance work once a year. The installation and maintenance process doesn't cost much also there is no risk of clogging. Therefore, a GrateDrain™ is more cost-efficient than a French drain.
