How Does a Foundation Drainage System Work?

A foundation drainage system is designed to remove excess water from around your home or business. It typically consists of drains, moisture barriers, and other components that work together to create an effective solution for water drainage. The goal is keep the soil surrounding the foundation dry by diverting any water away from the structure as quickly as possible. This helps protect against potential flooding, prevents erosion and soggy soil, and also keeps foundations from settling unevenly due to moisture buildup.
