Curtain Drains

maintenance man

I need to install a curtain drain in the house I just bought anybody have any tips or suggestions for me?

Cole

What is a curtain drain?

Is it similar to a french drain?

And if I am reading your post correctly, you need to install it "in" your new house?

"In" reffering to where again?

M & M,
How about telling us why you need a curtain drain . Are you getting water in your basement ? Is your lot wet ? Are you on septic system or sewer ? Details man, details !

I need a curtain drain because I have a sloped yard and there is evidence of water through the foundation, also the sun room I have has some buckling on the sub floor. I've done one of these before, I am just fishing for extra tips...the last one was a bitch to do. I'll probably use a little Kabota this time.

In what regard?
It's much simpler to tell you how to work around the difficulties you experienced on the last one than it is outlining a bunch of stuff you probably already know. What didn't go well last time?

Unless you were digging it by hand? Curtain Drains tough?? I dont think a Kabota would be good. I would go with a mini excavator with O tail swing and a skid steer
