It's rare to run into this where a city or village will not allow you to run a French drain. If you're on a lake or a community that's predominantly on the lake, the worries are you're going to be trying to drain the lake out and running it to the storm drain, and the system's going to become overwhelmed with water.

This yard was far enough inland and at an elevation to where there was no threat of draining the lake, so I'm out to help this homeowner. That's what I do. So I'm going to show you what we ended up doing to satisfy the building department. I believe every man has the right to protect his castle and as you know, we're here to help the homeowners. Whether you're a DIY or whether you're hiring this out, this is what you can do so that you can rid yourself of looking at all that water. It's just crazy.

This gentleman has a sump pump line over here that has to run out to that yard that's just going to add to that.

Okay. We're here in St Clair Shores, Michigan, putting in a French drain grid. Also, this sump line use to run out the front of the house, and it would ice up the sidewalk. So we changed that. We had to get bonded with , which is no big deal. We're starting to do a lot of work down here.

So there is a really old infrastructure, two doors down. So we went across two yards. We had to get signatures; people had to sign off that we could cross their property and that there was going to be a pipe. We went with schedule 40 because, in Saint Clair shores, people are allowed to keep a boat on a trailer in their yard. I don't want somebody putting a heavy fiberglass boat and parking it on the drain and compromising it. So we went with schedule 40. And you know how I like the deep bells. This is a great belled end here. I love this. It's crazy deep. I don't have to worry about that coming apart. It's going to catch all kinds of stress from the freezing and thaw. I'm not worried about that coming apart. Plus we always use some good PVC cement or weld.

Now everybody around this gentleman filled their yard over the years. So that's how he inherited so much water.

So that's a run right there. I want you to realize it's done. That's how clean. Look at this. You can see where the side was cut. It's how clean. That's how clean the guys. It's amazing. It's just amazing. [...]
