How often should I clean my gutter and drain systems?

How long does it take to install once I agree to use you for our project?

We generally schedule jobs 1-2 weeks out from the time of approval. If you have a closing or something that our services are holding up, we will do our best to accommodate you. Depending on the size and scope of the project, it generally takes 1-2 days for most installations.

Do I need to be home during installation?

No. As long as we have full access around the exterior of your home, no one needs to be present for any seamless gutter or French drain project.

Should I paint the exterior of my home before or after gutters are installed?

You will almost always want to paint before new gutters go up. If you need the gutters removed in order to paint behind the fascia board, let us know and we can schedule a removal so that you can fully paint before new seamless gutters are installed.

What is the difference between a French drain and a surface drain?

Simply put, French drains capture ground water and surface drains take on water from large surface areas, such as parking lots, yards, driveways, roofs, etc. Read more here.

 

What kind of pipe do you use for French drains and surface drains?

We only use Class 200 PVC pipe for all of our French drains and surface drains for longevity as well as optimal water flow. ADS polyethylene pipe or the black corrugated pipe tends to break down, clog, collapse, tree roots grow through it, and it generally cannot be snaked out.  

 

Do you offer drain inspections?

Yes. We do drain & gutter inspections. We can flow check as well as run a diagnostic camera through the drains to insure there are no areas that are collapsed, plugged, or broken.

Do I need to put any money down?

No. We will never ask for any money before the work is completed.

What Our Clients Say

Randall Gardner

Ever since my neighbor had his retaining wall built as part of his new home construction, there has been a significant amount of erosion caused by channeling. I needed a solution that would evacuate the water and move it from the front and side yard out the back of my retaining wall. I pointed out the issue to Dustin who quickly laid out a plan to fix my problem. Now the water is carried away without worry that foundations and retaining wall will be ruined by rivers of water. I highly recommend Dustin and the crew of professionals that installed my drain system. Very pleased.

Dennis came by to take a look at our drainage, which wasn’t draining and left huge puddles everywhere. We had someone else tell us we needed to replace the whole system, we were looking for a second professional to take a look and give a quote. He troubleshooted and figured out the pump outlet was tripped, fixed it, and gave us very helpful advice on what to do if that didn’t resolve our problems. Now our drain is working and it didn’t cost anything because he didn’t even charge for the visit. We are so grateful and will use Rain Tamer for any future gutter or drainage issues.
