Downspouts & Extensions in Lawrence, KS

Most foundation water problems in Lawrence 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.

What Lawrence-area homeowners are saying

“Fast quote, fair price, and they actually showed up when they said they would. Crew repaired some hidden wood rot before installing — most companies would have just slapped gutters over it.”

FAQs

Downspouts & Extensions in Lawrence — common questions

Why do I have basement water problems in Lawrence?

Usually because downspouts dump water within 3 feet of the foundation. Lawrence soil holds water, and even properly-sized gutters can't help if discharge is wrong. We fix this for $400–$900 per run on average.

How many downspouts should my Lawrence home have?

Industry standard is one downspout for every 600–800 sq ft of roof area. Most Lawrence homes are short 1–2 drops, which is why gutters overflow during heavy rain.

Should I bury my downspouts underground?

On many Lawrence lots — yes. We use 4" smooth-wall PVC sloped to a pop-up emitter 10–15 ft from the foundation. It's the cleanest solution and protects landscaping.

How much does it cost to add a downspout in Lawrence?

A new downspout drop typically runs $80–$180 installed. Add extensions or drainage runs depending on routing.
