Downspouts and Drainage

Downspout and Drainage Services Across the Florida Panhandle

Big Bend Gutters is based in Wewahitchka and handles downspout work across nine Florida Panhandle counties. Gutters can only do their job if the water gets away from the building.

We repair, move and extend downspouts so the water lands somewhere sensible.

What we do

Downspout Services We Provide

A downspout that dumps water at the base of the wall causes more trouble than no downspout at all. Most of what we do here is getting the water further out.

New downspouts added where a run needs one
Damaged or crushed sections replaced
Downspouts that have come apart reconnected
Downspouts moved away from doors and paths
Extensions and splash blocks fitted
Blocked outlets and elbows cleared
Does yours need work

Signs Downspouts Need Work

Look at the ground where the downspout ends after it rains. That usually tells you everything.

Puddles sitting against the foundation
Soil or mulch washed away below the outlet
Water running across a walkway or driveway
A downspout hanging loose or come apart
Water backing up at the top in heavy rain
Staining down the wall beside the pipe

The fittings

Extensions, Elbows and Splash Blocks

These are small parts that make a real difference, and they are cheap next to fixing what standing water does to a foundation.

Extensions in matching colors
Splash blocks at the outlet
Elbows to steer around obstacles
Brackets to hold the pipe flat to the wall

Homes and businesses

Residential and Commercial Downspout Work

On houses we usually get called about water pooling by the foundation or running across a path. Often it just needs the outlet moving and an extension fitting.

On commercial buildings the volume is higher, so downspout count and placement matter more. We keep discharge away from entrances, parking bays and walkways.

Questions

Downspout and Drainage FAQs

Do you install underground drainage?
No. We handle downspouts, elbows, extensions and splash blocks. Buried pipe, French drains, grading and excavation need a drainage contractor, and we will say so rather than take the job on.
How far from the house should a downspout discharge?
A few feet out is usually enough to stop water sitting against the foundation, and an extension is a cheap way to get there.
How many downspouts does a roof need?
It depends how much roof feeds each gutter run. Long runs and big roof areas need more. We work it out when we measure.
Can you move a downspout that empties by my door?
Yes. Relocating an outlet and rerouting the pipe is common work and usually straightforward.
Do you do downspout work on its own?
Yes. You do not need to be having other gutter work done.
