Historic Victorian homes commonly need full restoration of original copper or wood gutter systems.
Properly sized, properly routed — water away from your foundation.
Most foundation water problems in Leavenworth 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 Leavenworth 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.

Walk every downspout discharge point at your Leavenworth home — find where water is pooling or moving toward the foundation.
Confirm downspout count and size matches your gutter system's actual capacity.
Add downspouts, swap to oversized 3×4, or reroute existing ones.
Above-grade extensions, underground PVC with emitter, or splash blocks — whichever fits the property.
Pour or hose test to confirm water moves at least 6 ft from the foundation.
