Looking For Downspouts On Your Springfield MO Home Or Business
Rain gutters and downspouts work together to protect your property from rain and snow. Downspouts are usually vertical and extend all the way to the ground level, carrying rainwater from your gutter system to the ground. The stormwater must be directed away from your foundation to protect your property from water damage. Gutters and downspouts are two of the most important components of your home. If they are improperly installed or become clogged or broken, it can cost you thousands of dollars to repair your property.
It won’t matter that your gutter system is collecting all the rainwater from your roof if your downspouts can’t efficiently direct that water away from your foundation and off your property. Our downspout installation experts will calculate the surface area of your roof and the amount of water that could potentially be captured by the guttering system to size your downspouts properly.
For the security and stability of your gutter system on your Springfield home, Glennstone Roofing prefers larger downspouts so your gutters won’t overflow. Sometimes it makes sense to install one larger downspout instead of two smaller downspouts. This limits the number of seams you’ll have in your gutters, which means fewer leaks and a gutter system that’s easier to maintain. It also keeps you from having to find two spots to place a downspout.
There should be one downspout for every 30 or 40 feet of gutter. Downspouts should be located at the downward part of the gutter slope that’s not near any important features, such as driveways, electrical junction boxes, water meters, or other features that should be protected from rainwater.
