The Fast, Easy Way To Stop Overflowing Gutters.

Why Are My Gutters Overflowing?

Why Are My Gutters Overflowing During Heavy Rain?


Quick Answer

If your gutters are overflowing during heavy rain, something isn't working the way it should.

After days of heavy rain in Sussex County, clogged gutters and downspouts can become brutally obvious. Leaves, pine needles, roof debris and other buildup can restrict the flow of water, causing it to spill over the sides instead of being carried safely away from your home.

And regardless of where you live - Rehoboth, Lewes, Milton, Georgetown, anywhere in Sussex County - water repeatedly dumping next to your house can affect landscaping, fascia, siding and the area around your foundation.


At Sussex Pro Wash, we clean gutters and help get water moving where it's supposed to go—through the gutter system and away from your home.


And we can clean them right now!

Heavy Rain Is When Gutter Problems Show Themselves

A good Delaware downpour is one of the fastest ways known to man to show you that your gutters aren’t working right; because a gutter that looks perfectly normal from the ground on a dry afternoon, can suddenly transform into a torrent of gushing water and debris, when heavy rain starts. 

Leaves, pine needles, sticks, roof granules and other debris reduce the amount of water the system can handle. The fastest fix is to clean your gutters now!


Where Is All That Water Going?

It’s obvious. Overflowing water can run down siding, soak fascia, wash through flower beds, erode soil and repeatedly dump water near the foundation. A clogged gutter can also hold water and wet debris long after the rain stops.


That's why gutter cleaning isn't just about making gutters look clean. It's about managing water around your home.


Don't Wait For The Next Storm To Remind You

Once the rain stops, the problem hasn't necessarily gone away.

The leaves, pine needles and debris that caused the backup are still sitting there. The gutter simply stops overflowing because there's no longer enough water flowing through it to expose the blockage.

Then the next heavy rain arrives and it starts all over again.


If you noticed overflowing gutters during the recent rain, that's your gutter system telling you something.
