Keep Water Out: Gutters, Downspouts, and Drainage Before Fall Rain

Rainwater needs a clear path away from your property.

When gutters, downspouts, or drainage areas become blocked, water can collect near the roofline, siding, or foundation and create moisture problems over time.

Keep Gutters Clear

Leaves and debris can stop gutters from draining properly.

Check for:

  • Leaves and buildup

  • Sagging or loose sections

  • Water overflowing during rain

  • Areas where gutters appear damaged

Clear gutters help move water where it is supposed to go.

Check Your Downspouts

Downspouts should carry water away from the structure.

Look for:

  • Blockages

  • Disconnected sections

  • Water being released too close to the home

  • Damaged extensions

A working downspout helps reduce water collecting near the foundation.

Watch Where Water Collects

After rainfall, take a quick look around the property.

Standing water near the foundation, walkways, or landscaping may be a sign that drainage needs attention.

The goal is simple: keep water moving away from the structure.
