Install Process

How a trench drain goes in

Six on-site steps from the first cut to a flush, water-tight finish. Same sequence on every job — what changes is length, materials, and crew size.

  1. 01

    Plan & Mark

    Marking the trench drain run across a garage opening
    • Identify water flow direction
    • Mark full drain run across the opening
    • Confirm outlet location and slope (~1%)
  2. 02

    Excavate Trench

    Trench cut and excavated for the drain channel
    • Cut and remove concrete or asphalt
    • Trench wider and deeper than the channel
    • Maintain consistent slope toward the outlet
  3. 03

    Prepare Base

    Compacted gravel base prepared for the channel
    • Add compacted gravel or concrete base
    • Set elevation using string line or laser
    • Base supports full channel length
  4. 04

    Install Channel

    Channel sections set continuously across the trench
    • Place channel sections across full trench
    • Connect end-to-end with no gaps
    • Align slope and elevation across the run
  5. 05

    Concrete & Backfill

    Concrete poured around the channel body
    • Pour concrete around both sides of channel
    • Maintain proper thickness and support
    • Finish surface flush with surrounding slab
  6. 06

    Grate & Finish

    Grate installed and flush with the finished slab
    • Secure the grate into the channel
    • Ensure flush finish with the slab
    • Final check: water flows cleanly into drain
