Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most common drainage products for gardens and landscaping?
Popular drainage products for residential and commercial landscaping include agricultural (ag) pipes, socked ag pipes, filter fabric, dampcourse, and bricktor rolls. Ag pipes are perforated to allow water to enter and be redirected away from problem areas. Socked versions come with a fabric sleeve that prevents soil and debris from clogging the pipe. Filter fabric is used under gravel or soil to separate layers and improve drainage efficiency, while dampcourse and bricktor rolls help protect buildings from rising damp and water ingress.
When should you use socked ag pipe instead of unsocked?
Socked ag pipe is best used in areas with fine, silty soils that could easily wash into the pipe’s perforations and cause blockages. The sock acts as a barrier, letting water pass through while keeping sediment out. In sandy soils or areas with coarse backfill, unsocked ag pipe can be sufficient since the risk of clogging is lower. The choice between socked and unsocked comes down to soil type, the installation environment, and the project’s expected water flow.
How do you install drainage pipes for landscaping?
Installing drainage pipes typically involves digging a trench that slopes away from the problem area to guide water flow. A layer of gravel or crushed rock is placed in the base of the trench to improve water movement, followed by the ag pipe (socked or unsocked). The pipe is then covered with more gravel before being wrapped in filter fabric to keep out debris, and finally backfilled with soil. Ensuring the correct gradient is essential — a fall of at least 1:100 is recommended for effective water movement.
