Like many of the 50+ services performed every year under the HomeSquare Essentials plan, cleaning underground drain lines, traps & downspouts is one of those classic homeowner responsibilities which never gets done until it’s too late.

Just this week, a customer snapped a picture using the HomeJotter app of “bubbling water” near her house. Making sure the rainwater drainage system is clear and flowing is critical for keeping excess water away from your home.

One symptom of a blockage in your home’s rainwater drainage system is persistent wet or waterlogged ground near the house. Soggy ground even after a rainstorm is over might indicate a problem. Other danger signs include overflowing gutters or “bubbling drains”.

Easy Steps to Safeguard Your Home

To make sure that all the rain and melting snow on your house drains properly away from the house, it’s necessary to ensure a clear, unobstructed flow all the way from the gutters catching the rainwater at the edge of your roof to the sewage system at the edge of your property. Any blockages mean that water will overflow on to or next to your house.

How HomeSquare Can Help

Underground drain lines can be crushed or blocked by roots. HomeSquare will snake out those lines from the house out towards the sewer connection. Additionally we will remove and clean out the lower sections of the downspouts, where debris is most likely to accumulate. We will also clear the traps where the gutters connect to the downspouts, to ensure a clear flow through the system. ORDER THIS SERVICE NOW.
