This guy and his crew are the real deal. It was really great to compare his videos and the Apple drains videos to see the difference in knowledge and skill. Something simple as 1.5” cobblestone instead of 3/4” gravel makes such a difference. Hoping I can get delivery of the high octane before my backfill date 🤣

Damn man thank you for filming this. I run a lawn care company but I’m about try to specialize in yard drainage. Almost every house has poorly planned drainage. Really appreciate seeing the equipment and the process

I laughed so much when you were describing an old drug addict building drains with Styrofoam... I knew straight away who you meant. Funny thing is I stumbled across this channel after watching that one. You guys definitely put the extra work in and at the end of the day thats what stops you having to go back to clean the system etc. Learnt a lot from this channel, big love from UK 🇬🇧

Thank you for taking the time to teach your audience then importance of installation, and the proper way. You helped me salvage my basement. Thank you, truly.

We have clay in Oregon. In my case, we have very gushy, wet ground most of the time. Much of the ground around the house slopes back into the house (crawl space beneath). Your videos are really helping to educate me in what needs to be done.

[maxfritzgrace]

You are an excellent teacher. I’ve watched a lot of your vids and they are all excellent. I’m a dentist and your high quality is right down my alley. I wish you had a store north of Atlanta and an installer in our area but I can understand the logistics make it tough. Keep taking great care of your team and complimenting their excellent work. To your future!!

[paulblazich]

This is by far the best video you’ve made we need more videos like this one it answers all your questions the short ones sometimes leaves unanswered questions just my opinion thanks.

[michaelguzman]

Absolutely love your videos. You have a hardworking bunch too.

Looking forward to getting a local landscape architect to help out so we can get this Baughman to work! :) Thank you for keeping the customer first and sharing your knowledge.

God bless you, your crew, and all your families!!! All love from MO!!! ✊🇺🇸

Georgia has some serious clay! As a matter of fact, I just purchased a new home, and I am waiting for the builder to solve our sitting water in the yard issue. It is going to be interesting to see what they implement to solve this issue.

PS: Another nice video.

[windaddiction]

Like your videos.. I'm just starting my own business... Not French drain but basement water proofing and concrete repair. Love learning the tips.

[BlackImpalaSS]

Your video's are great! I have learned a lot from you.

[ServiceMasterlex]

Love your videos. You explain so many things in such great detail. I appreciate the fact you recognize the importance of your employees. The attention you give to all of the small details from A to Z is evident in your finished projects. I notice on many of your jobs that you "core" into an existing storm drain. How do you terminate a french drain on a property where no storm drain or ditch is available? In my neighborhood, the nearest storm drain is down the street several properties away. There is good "fall" between the front of my house and the sidewalk. Would I terminate the slotted pipe into a pop up emitter or 6" basin by the sidewalk? The termination of the french drain is my biggest point of confusion. Thanks for all of the information. Keep up the great work.

[johnhaehnel]

💯 correct about Kubota and DitchWitch Equipment. 🇺🇸

[janpavelkovar]

So, important, I agree, professional work and results. Your shared information has helped me tremendously to improve the way I approach french drains. And I know I need to learn and improve much more. A book?

[yofaceman]

Really appreciate your videos and the knowledge/ experience you're willing to share but seriously enough bashing the other guys. Some of those comments are just too far. Your work speaks for itself. Most will agree their systems are inferior. Why dont you invite them on for a chat about your differences instead? Bet it wouldn't lack in views.

[dwighta]

Ahhh lol 😂 I know who your talking about and his system are not built well, but u didn’t have to clown him on his substance abuse 😂

[jmichigan]

I have a moderate slope away from downspout. I put in 15 feet of solid pipe then 10 feet of perforated pipe (with a cloth sleeve) above 1-2 feet of gravel, and ending with a pop up onto lawn. Very clay soil. Does that seem ok?

[RandallHeath]

"Half-wit inbreds..." LOL! This video is great. Solid info and hilarious commentary.

[Jay-hrci]

Do you need to worry about fall? Or as long as the exit is lower its all good?
