I'm having a guy do the digging. I know when he starts, he is going to hit water. I know a sump pump or french drain is needed. Someone on here suggested leaving a pump in.....but how?
What would you guys recommend for a non exapandable material used for the back-fill?

Has anyone here worked with this DIY kit before?
