Installing the Foundation Perimeter French Drain System

In this video we assemble and install the foundation french drain around the perimeter of the basement. We dug a trench below the top of the footing, laid the perforated pipe with a protective sock covering, then set the grade of the pipe to drain to daylight before covering with two feet of clean, washed #57 gravel. All of this is wrappend in non-woven geotextile filter fabric.

Guildbrook Farm is an off grid, modern homestead located in the foothills of Appalachia. We take you along on our journey to become more self reliant by growing an organic garden, raising heritage breed chickens and pigs, improve our skills in canning and food preservation, building off the grid renewable energy systems, prepping for events such as natural disasters, and learning old time skills. Join us as we build an off-grid cabin and homestead from raw land while remaining debt-free. Follow our successes and failures as we learn to live a more simple, sustainable lifestyle.

Thanks for watching!
