Vancouver Underground Drainage Experts

A French drain is an underground system that collects water from saturated soil and redirects it away from a problem area. It normally includes a trench lined with filter fabric, clean drainage gravel, and perforated pipe, and the pipe carries the water to a planned discharge point.

French drain installation starts at $180 per linear foot. The final price varies with trench length, depth, access, soil conditions, materials, and restoration work, so the company recommends a free on-site estimate to identify the water source and plan the route.

Not necessarily. When suitable access points are available, the team first inspects underground lines with a drain camera and locating equipment. Excavation is generally recommended only when inspection indicates a damaged, collapsed, or inaccessible section that requires repair.

The company provides drainage, foundation repair, and waterproofing services throughout Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, including Burnaby, Richmond, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Surrey, Delta, Langley, Maple Ridge, and Pitt Meadows, and across Vancouver neighbourhoods such as Kitsilano, Kerrisdale, Dunbar, Mount Pleasant, Marpole, and Strathcona.

The team reviews the symptoms, property layout, drainage access points, and areas where water is collecting, then uses drain camera equipment and underground locating to identify blockages, roots, broken connections, and collapsed pipe. Based on what they find, the work may involve hydro flushing, root removal, targeted repair, excavation, waterproofing, installation, or replacement.
