Gutters and downspouts

Gutter Cleaning

Gutters cleaned out, gutters and downspouts flushed, and both checked for leaks and misalignment.

Chapter 01

Where an overflowing gutter sends the water

A clogged gutter does not hold water, it spills it. Over the edge, down the fascia and onto the soil beside the foundation, which is the one place you want it least.

Most clogs are invisible from the ground. Downspouts fill from the top, so a gutter can look clear from the lawn and still back up in the next heavy rain.

Cleaned out, flushed, then checked

A CEP crew cleans out the gutters, then flushes both the gutters and the downspouts so water runs end to end. While it runs, they inspect for leaks and misalignment.

Technicians take before and after photos of the work, and our Quality Assurance Team reviews them. Homeowners from Glen Allen to Richmond book it on its own or alongside a house wash.

From roof edge to foundation

The path the water takes, and where we check it

  1. The gutter run

    Cleaned out so nothing is left sitting in the channel.

  2. Seams and joints

    Checked for leaks while the water is running.

  3. Alignment

    Checked for misalignment, so water heads where the gutter is meant to send it.

  4. The downspout

    Flushed from the top, so a gutter that looks clear is proven clear.

  5. The foundation edge

    The reason for the other four steps: water should leave the roof and stay off the wall base.
