French drains...

Like many of you our basement floods with rain water, it has since we moved in (from where our furnace vents out). we have finally decided its time to do something about it.

Those of you who have a french drain, are you happy you did it? does it help? Especially those who have a french drain and NO sump pump?

We got an estimate tonight and are pretty sure we are going to do it, but I love to hear what the powers of LIF have to say when it comes to this stuff!!

TIA, Thanks!!!

We don't have them but we are still considering installing them (either ourselves or with a landscaper).

I, too, would love to hear comments about them.

We got an estimate for a 5 ft section in our boiler room where we have the water problem. FM me if you want specifics. We really like the company that came in!
