Properly installing and maintaining weeping tile is the best way to prevent moisture damage to your home’s foundation and interior. Also known as a French drain. A proper drainage system installation draws moisture away from the building’s foundation and disperses it into the surrounding ground. It protects the house from interior wetness and preserves the building’s structure.
Making sure that a proper weeping tile drainage system is installed all around your house in the best way to ensure the house’s longevity. Weeping tile needs to fully surround a house and be in good repair to do its job properly. But sometimes as the property ages, the drainage system can decay and become in need of repair or need to be replaced fully. Evidence of a damaged drainage system usually shows itself in the form of a damp or musty-smelling basement. Often there is water seepage through parts of the wall or floor, damp or moldy smells, and surfaces, and sometimes there can even be standing pools of water that occur after heavy rainstorms or a spring thaw.
