Where I live we usually do not get water in the basement unless it rains constantly over a period of time. Its happened twice in the last
5 years, but fortunately I only got a inch of water in the corners of the basement, no real damage.My next door neighbor recently had a french drain put in. I was just curious if this would affect my house at all? Would it help or hurt? I read that water usually goes to the point where its open, so I assume any water would go to my neighbors house first. But at the same time I wonder if it would make my house more susceptible to flooding. Does anyone here had any adverse affects from a neighbors french drain?
