What happens here

This project details the installation of a French drain system to address standing water and poor drainage in a backyard. It involves excavating a trench, connecting to an existing drainage pipe, laying geotextile fabric, installing perforated pipe, filling with clean rock, backfilling with soil, and finally, re-sodding the area to restore the lawn.
