Category: downspouts

Picture if you will, brand new shiny seamless gutters on your house. Picture them clean & free of any leaves, pine cones, pine needles, those annoying little helicopter things, & just general debris. Nice huh? Well, not so swift there. All that runoff from the roof will flow very nicely into the gutter & toward the downspout. But what if the downspout itself is clogged up with debris? Where will all that water go? Nowhere, it will just fill up the gutter & overflow both the front & back, which will cause extensive & expensive problems. Erosion of the soil underneath the gutters, & possible damage to the fascia board behind the gutters is sure to happen. Not to mention foundation, interior walls, window, & basement problems. So let’s not forget to keep an eye on the downspout & make sure that water is flowing freely out of them & away from the foundation. It is not well known yet true that leaves will turn into dirt like compost, & if they obtain stuck in the downspout it is obvious that water will not flow freely & eventually back up into & over those nice shiny, clean gutters. So the message here is to be aware of the downspouts. If you are having a gutter guard installed, make sure that the downspouts are cleaned along with the gutters before installing the guards. Once those things are completed you should have a lifetime of worry-free performance with your gutters & downspouts. A trained gutter professional can easily assess the condition of all gutter components, & often times a simple gutter tune up will leave your gutters functionally like new.
