Drainage Systems & French Drains

Drainage Systems & French Drains

Western Arkansas receives nearly 4ft of rain every year. How much of this rain sits around your foundation? With porous and poorly draining soil in the region, standing water is dangerous to your foundation.

If you don’t have an efficient drainage system, you risk your foundation shifting and cracking in the loose soil.

Why Install French Drains?

Drainage systems are your best line of defense against standing water. You can’t change how much it rains, but you can control the amount of standing water around your foundation. Installing drainage systems is more affordable than repairing your foundation.

A drainage system keeps your foundation and the lower part of your walls dry in all types of weather

Drainage systems can help to prevent drainage issues that may cause damage to your home’s foundation. Many homeowners don’t know but standing water near your home can be fatal to the foundation. Pools of standing water will cause your yard to soften and may even cause your foundation to shift which could lead to cracks appearing in your foundation.

When it comes to developing and executing an effective drainage solution, look no further than our Integrity team. With over 30 years of experience, from residential to multi-million dollar projects, our teams can design and install the drainage solution to satisfy your needs.

The basic purpose of a drainage system is to shape the land into a watershed that can convey the runoff into an organized drainage system comprised of catch basins, French drains, and discharge lines. If your drainage system is below par, it will have a detrimental impact on your home or business. At Integrity, we specialize in deep drainage systems. We can relieve the wall pressures that saturated soil has on subsurface walls, and we can stop water intrusion in your structure, through different techniques perfected over the years.

A drainage system protects against:

· Rotting structure and beams

· Mold and mildew

· Shifting foundations

· Cracks in the foundation

So how does Integrity Foundation Repair address these issues in a rainy climate? We use French drains.

Stay Dry All Year Long

Integrity Foundation Repair prides itself on using French drains. This draining method and installation is nearly 200 years old and has stood the test of time for its reliability and easy installation.

Foundation Repair

Foundations are the single most important part of your home. When a foundation fails, it’s due to poor construction, sub-standard material, poor drainage, or poor soil. In some cases, it could be a combination of things. So let us give your home’s foundation the INTEGRITY it once had.

Concrete Stitching

A proven, cost-effective method for concrete crack repair.

Push Piers

Push piers are usable on most homes with failing foundations to provide permanent stability.

Helical Piers

Helical piers dig down deep into load-bearing soils which helps to permanently stabilize the home from any settlement in the future.

Slab Piers

Some homes have a foundation that can't be fixed with helical piers or exterior push piers. That's where slab piers come in.

Telescoping Piers

Telescoping piers are used in crawl spaces to support parts of your home. 

Pre-Construction Piers

Pre-construction piers are what our team installs before your building is built to provide stabilization for your foundation.

Foundation Tie-Backs

Tie-backs can be a solution for when your walls move because of the pressure from over-saturated soil.

Basement Wall Supports

These beams will provide adequate support to basement walls that are collapsing pressures due to poor construction and saturated soils.

Carbon Fiber Straps

If movement is caught early, using Carbon Fiber Straps is a great remedy at lower cost than Wall Supports and much more cost affective than Tie-Backs.
