French Drains in Tennessee & Kentucky

Master Dry installs a state-of-the-art French drain (aka drain tile) system called WaterGuard - a patented product only available through Basement Systems dealers.

What makes WaterGuard in Tennessee and Kentucky much more effective than a basic French drain or drain tile system is its design. WaterGuard is specially engineered to sit on the basement footing, keeping it up out of the dirt and mud (the Mud Zone) and making it highly resistant to clogging. A special flange also makes a clean edge at the basement wall and prevents dirt and debris from falling into the system.

Tennessee waterproofing service area includes: Knoxville, Maryville, Cookeville, Morristown and surrounding areas. Our Kentucky service area includes: London, Richmond and surrounding areas. Call or contact us online for the best French Drain waterproofing system available. We offer free French drain quotes and inspections.

History of French Drains in TN & KY

Clogged Drain Tile

Drain tile and French drain first started to be used in basement waterproofing projects in the 1920s. Originally designed with clay tile, French drain and drain tile was designed by Henry French. Given the time, this was an excellent solution. Today, this drainage system lives on, and is generally made out of large, round plastic piping. However, since the 1990s, a more effective alternative has been developed - the WaterGuard drainage channel system.

French drain systems are usually designed with PVC pipe that is perforated and installed along the interior perimeter of the foundation, or along the exterior as the home is built. Laid underneath the basement floor, it drains water to a gravity drain (uncommon) or to a sump pump (very common).

In TN and KY - especially in Knoxville, Richmond, Cookeville, Maryville, and surrounding areas - homeowners with wet basements find themselves continually frustrated with failing French drains that lead to flooded basements (another clogged drain tile pipe shown right).

Let Master Dry solve your wet basement problem once and for all - and we supply a written, transferable lifetime warranty on our waterproofing system.
