A blocked downpipe means water has nowhere to go — it backs up and overflows from your gutters, causing water to pool at your foundation, seep into walls or damage your fascia boards. Downpipe clearing is often part of a full gutter clean, but we also address severely blocked downpipes as a standalone service.
Signs of a Blocked Downpipe
- Water overflowing from your gutters even when they appear clean
- Gurgling sounds from your downpipes during rain
- Water pooling around your foundation at the base of the downpipe
- The downpipe feels or sounds solid when you tap it
How We Clear Blocked Downpipes
We flush downpipes from the top with a high-pressure water flow to dislodge compacted debris. For severely blocked pipes we use specialist tools to break up the blockage before flushing. We confirm the pipe is clear end-to-end before completing the job.
All downpipe clearing is included in our full gutter clean service. If additional work is needed on severely blocked pipes, we will quote this upfront.
