Downspouts & Underground Drainage in Mobile, AL

Keep Rainwater Away From Your Foundation

Mobile gets heavy, fast rain, and every gallon your gutters catch has to go somewhere. If downspouts dump water right at the corner of the house, it can wash out flower beds, pool against the slab, seep into crawl spaces and stain driveways and walkways. Southern Gutters LLC sizes and places downspouts so water leaves the roof quickly and lands well away from your foundation, with above-ground extensions or underground drain lines where they make sense.

Downspout services we offer

• New downspouts sized and placed to match your roof and gutters
• Downspout extensions to carry water away from the foundation
• Underground drain lines that route water out of sight to a better spot in the yard
• Re-routing or adding downspouts where gutters overflow at the corners
• Repair of loose, crushed or leaking downspouts

Do you need underground drainage?

Underground lines are a good fit when water pools in the same place after every storm, when a downspout ends at a walkway or driveway, or when you simply don't want extensions lying across the lawn. We'll look at how your yard slopes and recommend the simplest option that works. Every estimate is free.

Downspout FAQs

Why do my gutters overflow at the corners?
Usually there's too much roof draining to one downspout, the downspout is too small, or it's clogged. Adding or upsizing downspouts often fixes it. Our post on 5-inch vs. 6-inch gutters in Mobile explains why size matters here.

Can you add downspouts to my existing gutters?
In most cases, yes. If your gutters are leaking or sagging, we may recommend gutter repair or new seamless gutters first.
