How to make a high -quality drainage system with your own hands

The construction of the drainage system begins with the fact that the side of the section is determined, if the site is located on a relatively flat surface and the slope cannot be determined, then trenches with an inclination in one certain side should be dug up. The ditches are dug around the perimeter of the entire site, and they should converge in the same place in the site – a large ditch (in shape this system resembles a “Christmas tree”). The slope of the trenches should be an average of 4 cm. To check the correctness of the construction of the trenches, you can let water over them, if it stagnates in any place, then the level of inclination must be changed. In your free time you can buy stones for a bathhouse.

After this work, the grooves are covered with crushed stone (or any other material that can easily pass moisture). The best option would be, of course, lay drainage pipes by sprinkling them with earth – such a system looks more aesthetically aesthetic and requires less care.

Finally, as for the well (or pond), where excess water will flow out, it will not need much difficulty for its construction – you just need to dig a deep hole and pour large crushed stone on the bottom, and the hole itself can be covered with a special protective grate.
