Gutter Debris Causes Problems

Storm Water Line Blocked By Gutter Debris

This job was a blocked storm water line caused by debris build up in the gutters building up in the storm drain. As the water overflowed it was causing the ground around the area to get washed away. We repaired the blocked drain and rocks were added to the area to stabilize and improve drainage.

Are Clogged Gutters A Problem?
It may not be all that obvious but clogged gutters can cause flooding in your basement.

I know the gutters on the roof are a long way from the basement, but if you are experiencing basement flooding during periods of rain, start inspecting for problems from the roof down.

When gutters or downspouts are blocked and not working properly rain water can’t be diverted away from your home.

The water ends up seeping down the foundation. Water can then enter your basement if there is a crack in the foundation or if the weeping tile or storm system becomes flooded and backs up into your sewer system.
