What is a downspout?

Gutter downspouts are an attachment fixed to the bottom of your gutters to direct the flow of rainwater to the most appropriate location- away from your foundation! Downspouts may also be called downspout pipes, water pipes, or something else depending on your Iowa location.

Downspouts are fully sealed to your gutters, and we offer several downspout options with a minimum discharge of 10 ft. away from your foundation! That's ten more feet of freedom and protection against downspout clogging and underground plumbing issues.

Trusted gutter, downspout, & gutter extension company in Greater Des Moines

Our gutter downspout extensions have a minimum discharge range of 10 ft!

Downspouts and gutter extensions protect your foundation, lawn, and roof from costly damage. Without a predetermined discharge location, the rainwater directed away from your roof could still end up in your basement or foundation. 

Downspouts & extensions prevent gutter drainage issues:

• Foundation damage- If gutter drainage isn't directed away from your home with downspouts, your home will show signs of foundation settlement, foundation cracks, sticking windows and doors, and other dangerous symptoms.
• Poor indoor air quality- When moisture seeps into your basement or crawl space, the indoor air quality of your entire home is affected. Mold growth, musty smells, and other signs of lower indoor air quality occur.
• Flooding- Downspouts will help protect your basement and crawl space from flooding during heavy rain. This will save you money, time, and stress spent on costly water damage repairs.
• Water damage- Downspouts also move water away from your roof, siding, windows, door frames, and exterior paint, further protecting your home.
• Harmful erosion- Pooled water can wreak havock on your lawn and landscaping, decreasing curb appeal and home value.
