Why Are Downspouts Important?
Downspout lines are an important part of a home’s water drainage system. Roof water is carried from your gutters into a downspout line and carried away from your home.
When downspout lines are clogged, your gutters will begin to overflow and water will accumulate at the base of your home’s foundation. This leads to water build up around your home’s foundation and water eventually seeps into your basement and walls.
Wise Waterproofing of Akron, Ohio provides professional downspout repairs, cleanings, and installations to ensure roof water is properly drained. Contact our certified waterproofing team today for all your downspout line needs.
