Uncovering A Hidden Problem: Seized Weeping Tile/French Drain Flap And Drain Cleanout Revealed!

Watch as @mundaneman254 cleans out the french drain/weeping tile drain in a 50 year old house.  The flap that allows water from the weeping tile to go to the sewer was seized not allowing water to drain.  Also, the drain from the weeping tile to the sewer was very plugged as well.  If you are seeing water weep into your basement through the foundation or floor, you should make sure your weeping tile is able to drain.  

This was an older house so it does not have a sump pump.  It relies on the flap for the weeping tile drain to be free to open and the drain must be clear to allow proper flow.

 It was a dirty job but someone had to do it.
