Underground downspouts are a critical element of your home’s rainwater drainage system. If these pipes are damaged, it can result in water damage and ultimately even property damage. Serving Kentucky and Ohio, Stan Young Drainage provides full-service residential and commercial waterproofing services. The team encourages you to contact them if you notice an issue with your pipes.

The biggest issue with underground downspouts issues is that it’s not always evident that an issue exists at all until it’s too late. By then, your basement walls have developed unsightly stains, your floor may have mysterious puddles, and there may be a musty, mildew-like odor in the air.

These are all symptoms that are indicative of water damage. The job of a functioning pipe is to direct water away from your property. When a pipe is broken, though, water that runs through a normal pipe is redirected to an area near your home instead. Over time, this moisture can cause an abundance of problems. In addition to those obvious signs of water damage, mold may develop. This, too, carries its own set of problems, including major damage to the home and even to your health.

If any of these problems affect your home, it may be worth a visit from Stan Young Drainage. These drainage contractors do it all, from inspecting your basement for leaks to sealing the perimeter of your home to prevent future damage. If you’re dealing with a serious flood, the company’s experienced contractors will use sump pumps to direct the water away from your home. They’ll also repair or replace damaged underground downspouts, ensuring that your home is free of these problems for good.
