Great video. It’s great to see a coherent, straightforward explanation that won’t harm the home. Before watching, I thought of putting a plumber’s snake up the downspout so it was great to hear that as one of your suggestions!

Great, well-thought-out video, showing various possible solutions and what to expect when you try each strategy. I wish all videos were done this well.

Thank you kindly for this great content! Very informative and I learned a lot from it.

Thanks again for a useful video. BTW, seeing that someone besides me works thoughtfully to deal with these kinds of issues is comforting.

This one video and Im going to watch your others for sure. Its always nice when know how and video production meet, thank you.

THANK you for explaining how to. Clear down spout!!

Super helpful for my planning- thanks!

Good video 👍 I tried to send a hose up from the bottom with a small jet nozzle on the end, but it couldn’t get by the first 45 degree elbow. Next I will try a 3/8” OD x 1/4” ID section of plastic tubing inserted in the end of the hose. The idea is the tubing will get by the elbows but be stiff enough to push towards the clog to free it up.

I have use a doubled up piece of thick electrical wire. Folded the length in half. Then twist the wire to make it ridgid. Seemed to work fine. Home depot sell a fitting for hose the comes out like a pressure washer. That work s also .

Thanks for the info !!

some good suggestions. Thanks!!

Pretty good

Can I run a snake up the vertical downspout to unclog any possible debris? My eavesdrop gutters have screens all along, however, when it rains heavy above my front and back doors water is cascading beyond the gutters. The screens are difficult to remove. This has never happened previously. Last winter for the first time the horizontal aluminum (3 x 3 inch drain spout at the bottom was frozen solid which has not happened previously either. Over the winter, should I be removing the 60 inch horizontal drain spouts? I’ve never had to do that in the past.

Thankyou. Never heard a female before talking about these things. Great.

Perfect. Thnx

direct exit to lower point makes the foundations go down. if your house is brick, u will get cracks.

Is super impressive, and very helpful, thank you.

Thx for the video, I am going to try using a hose or pvc pipe to clear the elbow, might even attach it to a drill, who knows how it will go

Where did you get the STIFF WIRE you used in this video to unclog the downspout? I can't seem to find one.

Here is a trick an old woman once told me and it worked. Pour a couple of gallons of thick sugar water down the gutter. In a week the ants will have dug tunnels to get the sugar and the water will flow. The more sugar the better. this method also works to get rid of yellow jackets except pour it at night. Ants can be helpful to home owners.

Not bad lady.

Audio keeps getting louder and softer.

Lmfao.......Drain screen and a blower works just fine to clean out gutters. Don't buy into the expensive stuff.

Sorry but this Philly/MD/DE accent is the worst. “And” is apparently “eeyind.”
