We needed retrofitting work done on a home built in the 1940s, and their crew handled it professionally from start to finish. They stayed on schedule and explained each phase clearly. Everything passed inspection without any problems.
They came out for a crawl space inspection and found issues we didn’t even know existed. Instead of pressuring us, they explained the repairs clearly and gave us realistic options. The entire experience felt honest and professional.
We noticed gaps forming around our windows and decided to get a foundation inspection done. The team found the source of the settling and repaired it before things got worse. Very professional and easy to work with.
We were getting water in our crawl space after heavy rains, and it was starting to affect our floors. This team installed a drainage system and repaired the damage fast. It’s been dry ever since and the musty smell is gone.
I appreciated how honest they were during the inspection no scare tactics, just facts and solutions. They gave us multiple repair options and didn’t pressure us into anything. You can tell they care more about long term results than quick profits.

The cost of installing a foundation drainage system in the Denver-Aurora-Centennial area typically ranges from $4,000 to $15,000, depending on the size of your home, soil conditions, and the complexity of the excavation. For a standard single-family home, a basic exterior French drain system often falls between $5,000 and $10,000. Interior drainage systems, such as a sump pump setup, are generally less expensive, starting around $2,500. However, these prices can vary significantly based on local permitting requirements. Before proceeding, we recommend reviewing our internal article titled Permit Guide For Foundation Drainage Systems In Lakewood And Jefferson County to understand specific regulations in Lakewood and Jefferson County. Bedrock Foundation Builders always advises getting a professional site evaluation to ensure the drainage solution is tailored to your property's unique needs.
For homes in the Denver–Aurora–Centennial, CO Metropolitan area, the best drainage around a foundation involves a combination of surface grading and subsurface systems. The soil should slope away from the house at a minimum of 5% for at least 10 feet to direct rainwater away. A properly installed French drain or perimeter drain system is essential to manage groundwater, especially given our region's expansive clay soil which can shift and damage foundations. Gutters and downspouts must extend at least 5 feet from the base. For a thorough evaluation, refer to our internal article titled DIY Foundation Inspection Checklist For Denver’s Expansive Clay Soil. Bedrock Foundation Builders recommends annual inspections to ensure these systems remain effective against local soil conditions.
To protect your foundation from water, the most effective solution is to ensure proper grading around your home. The soil should slope away from the foundation at a rate of at least 6 inches over 10 feet. You can install a French drain system or a swale to redirect surface water. Gutters and downspouts must be extended at least 5 to 10 feet away from the house. Applying a waterproof membrane or sealant to the exterior foundation walls is also a standard practice. However, be cautious with landscaping; tree roots can compromise drainage. For a deeper look at this risk, we recommend reading Tree Roots And Foundations: A Dangerous Denver Combo. Bedrock Foundation Builders advises that a combination of grading, drainage, and proper soil management is your best defense against water intrusion.
Yes, a foundation drain absolutely needs a slope to function correctly. For optimal performance, the drain pipe should have a minimum slope of 1/8 inch per foot, with 1/4 inch per foot being the professional standard. This downward gradient ensures that water flows away from the foundation by gravity, preventing pooling that can lead to hydrostatic pressure and basement leaks. Without proper slope, the system becomes a stagnant water trap, which defeats its purpose. At Bedrock Foundation Builders, we emphasize that correct installation is critical.
