Why Downspout Cleaning Matters
Downspout elbows are the narrowest points in your roof drainage system. Pine needles and leaf stems wedge inside 90-degree downspout bends, creating invisible dams inside downspout pipes.
At Gutter Dogs, every cleanout includes a complete downspout water flush test to verify unrestricted flow all the way to ground level.
