Allrite Total Basement Finishing

“Can’t you just add another downspout?” 🌧️ After heavy rain, we hear this question a lot at Allrite Home and Remodeling. While it may sound like a small project: adding and matching a single downspout can be disproportionately expensive once fabrication, materials and installation is factored in.

If your gutters are clean, properly pitched and simply need another place for water to escape, a DIY rain chain can be an affordable solution. Rain chains guide water from the gutter into a gravel basin, rain barrel or properly drained landscaping area.

This Old House offers a helpful step-by-step guide:

Note: rain chains aren’t right for every location or a substitute for repairing an improperly functioning gutter system. Be sure the water is directed safely away from your foundation. Learn more in the article below >>

Thinking about finishing your basement?

Material choice matters more than most people think.

Drywall, wood, and carpet don’t handle moisture well, which can lead to mold, mildew, and costly damage over time.
