Glad you asked! Here’s a video outlining a very robust repair we did in Draper, Utah. Your guaranteed guide to repair a failed basement walkout drain ua-cam.com/video/Pqp5IVbfeC0/v-deo.html
We are looking in to other ways of repairing the drain, but as of now, the only guarenteed solution we offer is to remove the entire drain and re-build it.
I'm surprised the bottom of the doorway is flush with the bottom of the stairs. I thought ours was too low. We have an older drain bowl with a side outlet and we've been getting sand accumulation. What's the easiest way to clean that out?
But what do you do if it's not draining?? What is an example of "a plan" to fix it??

I used a hose and a plumber bladder to remove some debris... Is some standing water normal? It's not accumulating which I guess is good.
Some water may still be there, but it should go down after some time.
Yes sir ❤
Does the homeowner have any other option than redoing the entire install?
