A French drain is a subsurface collection system, not a cure for every wet yard. Its usefulness depends on the water source, soil conditions, available fall and a suitable discharge point. Explain whether the problem occurs beside a foundation, across a low lawn or along a planting bed. Surface runoff may require a different collection method.
Ask for the proposed route, pipe and aggregate arrangement, cleanout access and restoration. The outlet must be considered before digging the trench. Keep irrigation pipework and utility locations in the plan so the drainage project does not damage a working system.
