Years ago I needed a French drain inside my basement (up North). The guys had to jack hammer the cement, dig it out by hand, lug it up the outside stairs, and around the house to dump it. The they had to do the reverse, by bringing the small stones to fill the void and the cement to finish it. You would think that they would look forward to taking a break at lunch. No! They were in the back yard throwing a foot ball around! They were some very hard working guys!
