Historic homes need restoration of original copper, wood, or galvanized systems.
Properly sized, properly routed — water away from your foundation.
Most foundation water problems in Independence aren't caused by failing gutters — they're caused by undersized or poorly-routed downspouts. We add capacity, reroute discharge, and install extensions or underground drainage that actually moves water away from your foundation.
Most Independence basement seepage problems we diagnose come back to one root cause: downspouts dumping water within 3 feet of the foundation. We fix this for $400-$900 per run.
