Why is it necessary to replace your French drains? A real shield against humidity, the French drain and waterproofing membrane are essential to the preservation of your property. To put it simply, these elements protect and waterproof your foundation – and basement – from possible breakage and issues such as water infiltration problems, mold growth, etc.

Every year during the thaw, many homeowners find silent and often very expensive surprises both inside and outside their property. Even despite an annual maintenance, the drainage system has a lifespan at the end of which it will be necessary to proceed with the French drain replacement. We often notice that the drain begins to falter after 25 years of continuous work, or around half of its service life. The price related to French drain installation represents a necessary investment to keep your home dry, which is why you should entrust this complex procedure to Groupe Durasec to obtain quality work that will keep you dry.

The diagnosis has fallen – you need to replace your drain! In the next few days or even weeks, a major construction site will take place all around your house. In order to allow the land to drain well, you will have to wait at least a year before redeveloping it or re-earthing it. As this is an expensive and complex operation which requires specific experience, doing business with a company like Groupe Durasec is a real guarantee of quality. In addition, we take great care in your current layout to preserve it as much as possible.

At the same time, changing your waterproofing membrane will certainly give you peace of mind for many years to come. Why not install the Rub-R-Wall membrane, which adheres perfectly to the foundation thanks to its spray application? As it dries, it provides effective waterproofing by forming a 1 mm thick layer. Rub-R-Wall is a waterproofing solution that pays off in the long run.
