Footing Drain Solutions in Philadelphia, Chester & Montgomeryville

A footing Drain is a highly effective foundation drain to channel away, any water seeping through the ground and may cumulate against the foundation. In general, it drains away water to the storm sewer, or the sump pump, or to the ground. It is a pipe that surrounds the perimeter of a house’s foundation on the level with the footing. It has many slits or tiny holes to let water get in and be channeled away. The slits are covered with filters to prevent any soil from entering.

However, it may malfunction due to improper installation or being clogged over time. As a result, having nowhere to go water enters your basement.

Our specialists will assess the damage and remediate the issue. We also provide a basement waterproofing system designed to meet the needs of any home, regardless of age or size.

Why Footing Drain Malfunctions?

A footing drain is installed on the level of your basement footing so that it can collect the water seeping through your basement.

When a building is constructed, the ground is excavated and then backfilled after placing the foundation. While backfilling soil most of the time the structure of the footing drain gets damaged. Also, the backfilled soil is loosely packed than the untouched ground. The looser the soil is the greater it absorbs water and expands, putting pressure on the footing drain. When excessive soil and debris put pressure on the filter fabric of the drain pipe water cannot enter the pipe. Over time muddy water and particles enter the drain and clog it.
