Water Pooling Near Your Foundation?

Protect Your Home With Downspout Extensions

Redirect roof runoff away from your home to prevent leaks, erosion, and foundation damage.

Small Fix. Big Impact on Your Home’s Health.

Downspout Extentions

When water drains too close to your home, it can seep into the foundation, erode soil, and lead to costly basement or crawl space issues. Downspout extensions carry rainwater away from your foundation to a safer spot in your yard — preventing damage before it starts. It’s one of the simplest and most affordable ways to protect your property.

How Do You Know If Your Downspouts Aren’t Doing Enough?
  • Water pooling around the base of your home
  • Damp basement walls or floors after rain
  • Erosion or sinking soil near the foundation
  • Peeling paint or mold on exterior walls
  • Overflowing gutters or short downspouts
  • Cracks forming near basement windows or footings
How We Extend and Redirect Your Downspouts

We assess how your home handles roof runoff and install extensions that carry water safely away from your foundation. In most cases, we use a buried 4-inch PVC pipe to discreetly move the water underground. At the end of the line, a popup emitter releases the water onto the surface when the system is full — keeping your yard clean and your foundation protected.

It’s a low-maintenance, long-lasting solution that blends seamlessly into your landscape.

What’s a Popup Emitter?
A popup emitter is a small green cap at the end of a buried drainage line. It stays closed until water pressure builds, then pops open to release the water — no puddles, no mess.
