Weeping Tile Installation & Repair Edmonton

What is weeping tile? Contrary to the “tile” word being used to name it, Weeping tile is actually a porous drain pipe that is used for underground water collection, or underground water drainage.

Weeping tile is typically located beside the footing on a foundation wall. This weeping tile allows ground water to drain into it then run to the sewer or a sump system (this will depend on the age and municipal location of the house). There are occasions where existing weeping tile may need to be replaced. This can occur when old style clay weeping tile becomes dysfunctional or new style plastic weeping tile gets clogged with sediment or tree roots.

There are different types of weeping tile and specific requirements for safe installation. Let the Edmonton weeping tile installation & repair professionals at Abarent Construction provide this service to you for problem free results.
