What happens here

Preparation for the drainage system installation continues. This involves cutting and re-gluing cap blocks for the retaining wall, ensuring a neat finish. The drainage trench is further prepared for the installation of perforated drainage pipes wrapped in filter fabric. This permeable system is designed to allow water to enter the pipe while preventing soil fines from clogging it, effectively creating a French drain.

Tools and materials
