I think it depends on when the house was built. I believe they do that standard now w/ new home construction. But, as far as older homes, (like ours... built in '65), we don't have any perimeter drain pipes. We do, however, have a sump pump in the lowest area of our basement, but that SOB doesn't kick on unless the water table is extremely high.
