Frequently Asked Questions

What is drain tile?

Drain tile is a type of drainage system designed to prevent water from accumulating around your home’s foundation. It typically consists of a perforated pipe installed beneath the ground, wrapped in a filter fabric to keep debris out. The pipe redirects water away from your foundation, reducing the risk of basement leaks and water damage. This system is essential for maintaining a dry, stable home environment, especially in areas prone to heavy rains or high groundwater, like East Troy, MI.

What is a drain tile test?

A drain tile test is a procedure used to evaluate if your home’s drain tile system is functioning properly. During the test, water is introduced into the drainage system, and its ability to flow freely and drain water away is assessed. The test can help identify clogs, damages, or inefficiencies in the system. Regular drain tile testing is a critical part of waterproofing maintenance, ensuring your home stays protected against water intrusion.
