A 930 Rocket, thanks for the clarification.

yes the idea is to collect the water in the black flexible pipe we call drain tile which will terminate into to a sump pump pit and then thrown back outside

yes you will finish the job off by capping the trenches with concrete


Hey Redline11, forgot to mention that when most customers have a major problem with water (which seems like you do) it is normal practice for us to install two sump pump pits in opposite corners of the basement

This will reduce the stress of one sump pump doing all the work
