Q:Can it be used in double thickness
by|May 31, 2022

Answer This Question

A:  I can’t see why not.  It would constrict water flow.  It’s purpose is to allow water to pass as soil not too. However, it is a very good product single thickness.  We covered a trench of gravel over leach field pipe.

      Q:Can this be used under cement slab for a patio

      Answer This Question

      A:  Yes but I would use a heavier barrier or plastic under the concrete per codes

        A:  Yes, as far as I know, since this is designed to keep the surrounding soil from filling in around the drainage pipe, which would block the water from filtering through the gravel and into the pipe. Hope this helps.

          A:  This landscaping fabric is very fragile and is easily torn. I would not recommend using this fabric for an underlayment for concrete. This fabric is better used as a soil separator such as for a French drain system, a water catch basin, or for covering landscaping plants.

            Q:With a perforated drain pipe added to extend a downspout underground, can the soil separator be used to simply wrap the pipe in trench to keep holes from clogging

            Answer This Question

            A:  Yes.  This is a very similar product to what is on drain tile that comes with the sock.   Make sure it’s weighted down (rock is best), otherwise it could move around while backfilling with a machine.

              A:  I don’t know.  I think it would work initially but eventually would clog from debris washed down from the gutters.

              by|Mar 31, 2022

                A:  The material isn't so much to prevent clogging but to creates a surround extending beyond the pipe of clean gravel. The more surface area the longer the life, and I actually used two rolls for my drain to so I could set one on each side and fill with gravel between. Directly against the pipe would place soil against and basically close the holes from the start.

                by|Mar 30, 2022

                  A:  That’s exactly what I did, except with small stone in between. Soil separator, stone, pipe and then wrap it. I’m sure other people do french drains differently but this was simppe.

                  by|Feb 19, 2023

                    A:  Yes but you need two either run a really long pipe underground for the water to go, or dig a dry well for the water.

                      One of those items that is so COMPLETELY incapable of doing what it's supposed to you can't believe Home Depot ever put it on the shelf! This is a nonwoven fabric that's thinner than toilet paper and just about as tough. It will shred to pieces while you are putting it in the ground. After it's in the ground it will shred the first time you (or your dog) steps over it. COMPLETE WASTE OF YOUR MONEY.

                        This is not heavy duty black trench liner like you would use for a hillside or underneath large rock. When you understand this is for small drainage trench use where you would use gravel or drainage pipe and use this product to line and cover your work area then this product is great. Does it tear like tissue paper as others have said? No not in my personal experience as i had to use a razor for clean cutting.

                        Absurdly thin. Worthless junk!
                        Honestly, this 'fabric' was a pathetic joke. Incresibly thin - you can just about breathe on it an it will tear. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

                          Not Durable, Easy To Tear
                          Great price, water flow excellent but material is very thin and easy to tear. This will not last in french drain applications.

                          Flimsy as tissue paper
                          Horrible. If i could give it a zero i would. So wimpy and easily ripped, i had to fold twice to get any separation. Home Depot should dump it and get a real product.

                          not worth it
                          Would have given 0 stars but that wasn't an option. Very thin, tears very easily, highly doubt it will separate soil

                          limited use drain filter
                          delicate material to employ; cover immediately with soil, sod, or rock to prevent blowing away; unless using for curtain drain, i recommend not trying to line a trench drain; my use covered the gravel that filled a trench and i put 4 inches of soil on top
