French Drain Question
French Drain Question
(OP)
Hi Folks,
I just built a french drain behind my garage. Instead of filling it with gravel I filled it with concrete sand after laying my pipe with sediment filter. Do you recommend that I cover sand with soil and plant grass seed, or just leave the sand exposed?
Thank you,
Jim

I appreciate the helpful advice. Would you recommend me channelling a gutter downspout into this trench?
