Always Use an Excavator When Installing a French Drain in Michigan
When installing a French Drain System, always use an excavator. An excavator will create a really large channel that you can later fill full of stone. This will remove water uninterrupted.
Do not use a trencher. Systems that are put in with a trencher fail and have to be replaced, they expire.
