Water on Walkway
Step 2 of 3: Select Capacity
We recommend using a french drain system to safely and efficiently drain water away from your walkways.
Water on Walkway - Low Capacity Option
Low Capacity 9 - 11 Hours
-
Tools Needed:
- Saw
- Level
- Measuring Tape
- Pick
- Shovel
- PVC Glue
- Plastic or Tarp
- Clear Waterproof Silicone
- Concrete
- Trenching Machine (optional)
-
Quantity needed of each part will vary based on several factors specific to your project including system length, rainfall intensity, and number of problem areas. Pipe and fittings are offered in two sizes: 3" and 4". Size availability will vary based on region and store. Ensure that component sizes are consistent throughout your drainage system.
We took a shot at estimating the amount of time and labor involved in this project for the average 40-year-old male hand-digging all trenches and holes. You can shorten your installation time significantly by using a trencher or hiring help to do the digging.
