We offer several different downspout drain sizes depending on how much water flow there will be on your home’s gutter system.

It does not matter if you have a poured concrete foundation, block crawl space or stone foundation, water is the number one enemy to any type of foundation. Water infiltration through basement walls, poor gutters, bad drainage and subsurface water all lead to leaky, wet basements and crawlspaces. By stopping this water infiltration you will be protecting the value of your home and your health.

Downspout drains are a very important part of the storm water drainage system on your home or business. These downspout drains are responsible for taking the water from your roof, gutters, and downspouts out away from the foundation. If water continues to saturate your foundation and surrounding soil, very expensive repairs may be a short few years down the road. Excessive moisture around the foundation promotes settling, termite infiltration, landscape damage, mold, mildew, pressure on foundation walls, and many other costly problems.

Home builders often use 3″ thin wall pipe and cheap fittings during initial construction for the downspout drains. We offer a couple options for a higher quality pipe and fittings. Another problem that we often run into is that the downspout drains are installed before the dirt around the newly dug foundation has settled. This causes the downspout drains to separate from the downspouts only a few years after construction.

Another problem that we run into is that the home builders will tie to many down spouts into one 3″ pipe. This creates a volume issue and during periods of heavy rain the drain will overflow next to the foundation. There is also the problem of companies using cheap styrene 90 degree elbows and T fittings instead of wye fittings in an effort to save pennies per fitting so they can keep the prices more attractive to builders. These cheap fittings often crack very easily and don’t allow the water to flow efficiently, in addition to making it nearly impossible for successful routine drain cleaning maintenance. We use only the best materials available.

We specialize in retro fitting and replacing downspout drain systems onto properties that have been established for many years after initial construction. Our crews are familiar with the additional challenges of working around existing landscaping and on established lawns. When replacing your under ground drain system we recommend using 4″ drain pipe. We only install high quality  fittings to help solve the many problems that are created by using low quality or undersized products.

Gutter replacement

“My whole Experience from first call to install was excellent! They were quick with response to my call & prompt to estimate. Very flexible when needed to re-schedule install, and they carry extreme attention to what was needed no over sale”.

-Karen C.

6 inch K style gutter is mostly common on large homes and medium to mid-sized commercial buildings. The capacity of a one foot section of 6 inch gutter is 2 gallons of water almost twice that of a 5″ gutter.

The most common size of downspout installed with 6 inch gutters is 3″x4″ rectangle although a 4″x5″ rectangle can be installed. Our 6 inch gutters are made with heavy duty .032 gage aluminum gutter coil. As with our 5″ gutter installation we use only the best material available including premium screw hangers.

Through the years most of the advances in technology have been in the way the 6 inch  gutters are attached to the home. Most new and retro installations are completed using hidden screw hangers. Gone are the large 6 inch gutter spikes or nails that work there way loose over time.

We use high quality materials in all of our 6 inch gutters installations including, quality gutter coil that comes with a 20 year warranty, the best downspout pipe, “premium” hidden screw hangers, and big 3″x4″ oval outlets. We finish the 6 inch gutter installation with color matched stainless steel screws to prevent rust streaks ensuring that you new gutters will look great for many years.

Ask to see samples of 5 inch  gutters, the difference is clear.  We are located in Columbus Ohio

Gutter cleaning service

Most impressed with the quality and professionalism of the installation crew. They were very polite and courteous. Certainly the company should be proud of this crew. They both are an asset to the organization. My gutters were serviced, they made necessary repairs, and adjusted my downspout.

As a full service gutter company we do gutter cleaning and repair as well. This type of service is completed during a service call out to your home. As part of a gutter service call, we will clean debris from your gutters and give your entire gutter / downspout system a “tune-up”. This means we will spend up to two man hours cleaning, tightening loose fasteners, adding fasteners, re-pitching gutter, refastening downspouts, re-sealing corners, and making other adjustments on an as needed basis. If two man hours is not enough time to complete gutter cleaning and repair on your entire home than additional time will be charged per man hour.

There are several different profiles and sizes of 1/2 round gutter. They are commonly made of galvanized steel, copper, or reverse bead seamless aluminum. The most common profile of 1/2 round gutter is a single bead across the front of the gutter and a double bead version with a bead in the front and back of the gutter is available.

There are many different hangers and bracket systems available to hang and support 1/2 round gutter. Typical sizes range from 5″ gutter with fluted or smooth round downspouts to 8″ with 5″ round downspouts. Due to the profile of the gutter and it’s limited capacity we recommend no smaller than 6″ be installed in the central Ohio – Columbus Ohio area. When installing copper or galvanized 1/2 round gutter we solder the seams and joints to provide decades of leak free service.

They were punctual and the work was done in a timely manner. Before leaving they cleaned up after themselves. Even wiping off my garden hose and winding it up neatly. I would highly recommend them.

I couldnt be happier. I have recommended you to friends and neighbors.They had great service too. Thanks

gutter cleaning and repair

If you believe you have a clogged downspout drain you can easily verify your thought by testing the drain with your garden hose, this will let you know if you need drain cleaning. If the drain is 100% clogged then it shouldn’t take long before you see water start to back up and overflow out of the top of the drain.

If your drain is partially blocked then you might see a trickle of water out of the exit of the pipe and some overflowing at the top of the drain. Because a garden hose is usually the only thing you can test with and it will only provide a limited flow of water into the drain there is another possibility. Your drain may be partially blocked and not overflow except for in the instance of a heavy rain that can put a higher volume of water into your drain system then what was possible with a standard garden hose. If you suspect this is your problem the only way to know for sure is to have a drain camera inspection completed or be lucky enough to be in the right place watching the drain the next time you get a heavy down pour. We specialize in exterior drains only, therefore we have the heavy duty equipment necessary to trench through tough terrain including roots.
