What to Know About Downspout Extensions
A surprising amount of the water reaching a crawl space starts at the roofline, not the ground. Downspouts that empty right next to the foundation send roof runoff straight toward the crawl space with every rain, so extending them further away is often the simplest way to reduce how much water reaches the space in the first place.
How We Install Downspout Extensions
A clear path from inspection to finished work.
Inspection
Current downspout discharge points are checked.
Grading Review
Slope near the foundation is assessed.

"The most musty smells are from lack of ventilation or moisture buildup in the crawl space."
