Why Functional Downspouts Are Critical for Rocklin Homes

Your gutters collect water, but downspouts are what protect your foundation

Problems from Broken Downspouts

  • 1
    Foundation Damage

    Water pools against foundation causing cracks, settling, and structural damage costing $8,000-$15,000 to repair

  • 2
    Basement & Crawl Space Flooding

    Poor drainage leads to water intrusion, mold growth, and expensive waterproofing projects

  • 3
    Landscape & Soil Erosion

    Concentrated water flow destroys landscaping, washes away soil, and damages hardscaping

  • 4
    Siding & Fascia Damage

    Leaking downspouts saturate walls causing rot, paint failure, and pest intrusion

Benefits of Proper Downspout Repair

  • Protect Your Foundation

    Properly functioning downspouts direct water 5-10 feet away, preventing costly foundation repairs

  • Prevent Water Damage

    Keep basements, crawl spaces, and walls dry all year—especially during Rocklin's rainy winters

  • Preserve Landscaping

    Controlled water flow protects plants, mulch, and hardscaping from erosion damage

  • Quick & Affordable Fix

    Most downspout repairs cost $100-$400—preventing thousands in future damage

Our Drainage Recommendation

For Rocklin homes with clay soil and our 25+ inches of annual rainfall, we typically recommend underground drainage systems or 6-10 foot surface extensions. This ensures water is directed far enough from your foundation to prevent pooling and structural damage—especially important during our heavy November through March rainy season.

Common Questions About Downspout Repair

Get answers to the most frequently asked questions about downspout services

How much does downspout repair cost in Rocklin?

Downspout repair costs in Rocklin typically range from $100-$400 depending on the issue. Simple reattachment or elbow replacement starts around $100-$150. Replacing a full downspout section runs $150-$250. Complex repairs involving drainage extensions or multiple downspouts cost $300-$400. We provide free estimates with transparent, upfront pricing before starting any work.

How do I know if my downspouts need repair?

Common signs include: water leaking from joints during rain, downspouts pulling away from the house, water pooling near your foundation instead of draining away, visible damage or holes in downspouts, water staining on siding near downspouts, gutters overflowing despite being clean, or downspouts that are crushed or bent. If you notice any of these issues, call us for a free inspection.

Can you repair downspouts on a two-story home?

Yes! We regularly repair and replace downspouts on two-story and multi-level homes throughout Rocklin and Placer County. We have the proper equipment, safety gear, and experience to safely work at any height. Two-story downspout repairs typically take 2-3 hours and are completed in a single visit.

Should I repair or replace my downspouts?

Repair when damage is localized (one section or joint), downspouts are under 10 years old and structurally sound, or you have a small leak or loose connection. Replace when downspouts are severely rusted or corroded, crushed or bent beyond repair, pulling away at multiple connection points, or over 15 years old with recurring issues. During our free inspection, we'll provide honest recommendations based on your specific situation.

Do you offer same-day downspout repair?
