Foundation Drain

This picture shows placement of drain rock over perforated pipe for drainage of excess ground water around the foundation of the custom home on columbia street. We are using Gradeline aggregate to place the rock. Next we will place filter fabric on top of the drain rock and backfill to grade with clean dirt.

ICF Foundation Drain and Waterproofing

This picture shows installation of EZ flow drainage system around the perimeter of a recent custom home in Sisters, Oregon. After the walls are poured full of concrete, primer is applied to the footing and ICF wall. Next, Blueskin waterproofing is fixed to the wall and down the footing. The drainage pipe consists of 4 inch perforated pipe surrounded by styrofoam peanuts contained by plastic mesh. This product provides a path of least resistance for excess water to drain away from the home. A bed of drain rock around the pipe helps with water drainage to the foundation drain.
