Yes, installing a French drain can be tackled as a do-it-yourself weekend project for homeowners willing to perform manual excavation or rent a small trenching machine. Success requires carefully digging a trench with a consistent downward slope, lining it with filter fabric, laying perforated pipe over washed gravel, and routing the discharge safely away to daylight or a dry well.
