Planning Downspout Redirection in Rochester, NY

Snowmelt, spring rain, low areas, roof runoff, and improper grading can create recurring water problems around Rochester properties. The right solution starts with understanding how water moves across the site.

Before work begins, we review the property and project goals so the recommended approach fits the site instead of applying the same solution to every yard.

Planning Your Project

Planning Downspout Drainage and Runoff Routes

Redirecting roof runoff starts with the downspout locations, the affected ground areas, and a suitable place for the water to go.

  • Current discharge: note which downspouts create puddles, erosion, or water near foundations.
  • Proposed route: consider grading, pipe access, existing utilities, and appropriate discharge locations.
  • System upkeep: discuss cleanouts, outlet access, and how buried drainage can be maintained.
