The gutter's job ends where the downspout's begins. We make sure roof water lands feet away from your foundation — not against it.
The service
Much of the Front Range sits on expansive clay soils that swell when wet and shrink when dry. A downspout dumping at the foundation corner cycles that clay through wet-dry swings all season — and that movement is behind a large share of the basement cracks and sticking doors Denver homeowners chase for years.
We install, resize, and reroute downspouts so water exits where it should: correctly sized outlets, secure strapping, and extensions that carry discharge well clear of the foundation and onto grade that slopes away. Where surface extensions won't work, we'll talk through low-profile and routed options that keep walkways clean and water moving.
Colorado note
Bentonite-rich clays along the Front Range can move measurably as moisture changes. Foundation specialists' first prescription is almost always the cheapest one: get roof water discharging several feet from the wall, onto ground that slopes away. It's a small line item that protects the most expensive thing you own.
Scope
Choices
Roughly double the flow of standard 2×3 spouts and far harder to clog. Standard on our 6-inch gutter systems.
Rigid or hinged extensions plus splash blocks, placed with the grade so water keeps moving away from the house.
Relocating awkward downspouts off entries and patios, with tidy routing that respects the home's lines.
How we work
Good questions
Four to six feet is the working minimum on Colorado clay; farther is better where grading allows. The goal is discharge onto soil that slopes away from the house so water never pools against the foundation.
Yes: reroute the downspout to discharge on the landscape side, add a hinged extension you can lift for mowing, or redirect the run to a different outlet entirely. Winter walkway ice from a downspout is a solvable routing problem, not a fact of life.
Standard 2×3 spouts pair with 5-inch gutters on typical roof loads. Large or steep roof planes, and any 6-inch gutter, should drain through 3×4 spouts — about twice the capacity and much more resistant to clogging with leaves and pine needles.
We install surface solutions — extensions, splash blocks, rerouting — and prep clean connections where buried lines already exist. For new underground drainage we'll refer a trusted excavation partner and coordinate so the handoff is seamless.
