water drainage piping

Because of Hydro using perforated 4 inch flexible pipe underground to run the main power wire to the house, every spring some of the snow melt from the front yard ends up in the basement because the 4 inch pipe fills up with water and overflows near the basement wall.

So I decided to attach a 1 1/2 inch diameter flexible pipe to the 4 inch Hydro flexible pipe to have the water flow in the 1 1/2 inch pipe instead of overflowing the 4 inch pipe avoiding water in the basement.

The pipe is trenched where it will spill into the old well.

The trench is now covered up.
