A properly installed interior perimeter drain system intercepts groundwater at the slab edge and routes it to a sump basin before it ever reaches your floor.
Drain tile that isn't sloped correctly is one of the most common installation failures we see when repairing someone else's prior work — water simply pools instead of flowing to the basin. We verify slope with a level, not by eye.

Sump basin and pump costs are itemized separately so you can see exactly what makes up the total.
Drain tile that isn't sloped correctly simply won't move water — we verify slope with a level during installation, not just by eye.
Every Poy Sippi, WI Interior Drainage System job starts with an inspection, not a generic package — here's what that typically includes.
We route the full perimeter or targeted sections depending on where moisture is actually entering, based on the inspection.
Basin placement is chosen for the shortest, most direct discharge path away from the foundation.
This option works well as a lower-disruption alternative to full perimeter drain tile in certain Poy Sippi, WI basement layouts.
The cove joint where wall meets floor is sealed and tied directly into the drain system so water is captured right at the entry point.
Existing drain tile that's clogged with silt or has failed slope can often be cleaned or repaired rather than fully replaced.
Tell us where water shows up and under what conditions — heavy rain, snowmelt, or constantly — so we can scope the likely system needed.
A technician checks where water is entering, measures the perimeter, and identifies the best sump basin location for discharge.
We explain why we're recommending full perimeter versus targeted sections based on what the inspection found.
Most residential interior drainage installs finish in one to three days depending on perimeter length.
"Old drain tile from the 1970s had completely silted up. They cleaned what could be saved and replaced the rest."
— Poy Sippi Homeowner
"Finished basement meant we couldn't cut the slab easily. Baseboard channel system worked great as an alternative."
— Poy Sippi Customer
"Explained the slope requirements in a way that actually made sense, not just technical jargon."
— Poy Sippi Homeowner
"Clean install, patched concrete matched the existing floor color almost perfectly."
— Poy Sippi Customer
Not always — if water is only entering along one wall, a targeted section can be enough, which we determine from inspection findings.
Drain tile requires cutting the slab; a baseboard channel is a lower-disruption alternative that captures wall seepage without floor demolition.
{Sometimes — if the pipe itself is intact but clogged with silt, cleaning can restore function without a full re-installation.|We camera-inspect where accessible to make that determination before recommending replacement.}
Basin size is based on expected water inflow from the drain tile's linear footage and your Poy Sippi, WI area's typical rainfall intensity.
If disruption is a major concern, we can discuss the baseboard channel alternative instead.
Most residential installs finish in one to three days depending on perimeter length and whether cove joint sealing is included.
