Gutter Downspouts Flushing & Jetting

Why Downspout Maintenance Matters

Gutter downspouts are critical components of your drainage system, guiding rainwater away from your roof and foundation. Over time, they can become clogged with debris like leaves, dirt, and even small branches, leading to blockages that can cause water overflow and damage. Regular maintenance is key to ensuring your downspouts function effectively.

What is Flushing?

Flushing is a simple yet effective process that involves using water to clear minor clogs in your downspouts. High-pressure water is directed through the downspout to dislodge and wash away debris. This method is ideal for routine maintenance and can help prevent more severe blockages from forming.

The Benefits of Jetting

Jetting, also known as hydro jetting, takes flushing to the next level. This technique uses specialized equipment to blast highly pressurized water through the downspout, effectively removing tough clogs and buildup. Jetting is especially useful for clearing out stubborn debris like packed leaves, mud, and roots that may have infiltrated the system.
