After we bought our 100-year-old house, I did a lot of research before attempting to fix our horrible basement flooding. After every medium to heavy rainfall, our entire basement would be covered with 3 to 6 inches of water. I spent days pumping water after every rain shower. French Drain Man was easily the best resource I could find, from their excellent help videos to their superb products. We called several businesses to help us and they all wanted $3,500 or more for minor fixes. Most said we had to pay well over $10,000 to add additional sump pumps and French drains along the all basement walls.

After less than $1,000 and three days of work (following the advice of French Drain Man and using my favorite FDM products), I stopped our basement flooding. It's now bone dry and has been that way for almost one year. I especially love their popup emitters and downspout leaf filters. Definitely worth the extra cost, and shipping was fast. I could not be happier with FDM!

My thanks to this company is overdue and can't be overstated. I was looking to make some improvements to our gutter system and I found this company online and their products and how to videos are outstanding. I have bought downspout cleanout leaf filters whose design is brilliant, pupup emitters, among other products and have upgraded my gutter system. I am a homeowner and a DIY'er. These guys know their business and have designed great products. They have answered questions via email and helped when I had a question about what to buy. They are efficient and there is no comparison between what they are manufacturing vs what you get at big box...My thanks to this company is overdue and can't be overstated.

They are efficient and there is no comparison between what they are manufacturing vs what you get at big box stores. Going to big box store for your gutter products is a waste of time and money. I won't do it again. It's great to support a US company, based in MI who take such pride in what they do. Thank you!.

Learned a lot from Robert's videos on Youtube about french drains/gutter downspout projects. Very informative and helpful. Purchased material in late October of 2025 for two gutter downspouts out to daylight (Over 100 FT) in the Chicagoland area. I went with FDM products because I appreciate that it's made in the US and quality craftmanship. I wanted something reliable that would last a long time. The only item I didn't buy was their heavy duty corrugated pipe due to the cost of shipping, otherwise, I would have. Took advantage of the sale. Would recommend his product and plan on buying more on the future gutter downspout project.
