Blocked downpipes causing gutter overflow
Why it happens here
Leaf litter and silt wash into the downpipe and compact at the bend, especially on Kingsford homes under mature trees. Once the vertical is blocked, the gutter backs up and overflows at the lowest point, usually straight onto the eaves.
Our approach
We clear the run by hand and vacuum, then jet every downpipe rather than just the visible ones. We confirm flow at the bottom before we leave, so you know the whole system is working, not just the channel.
