Clogged Gutters in Manor, Texas: Check the Water Path

What this shows: Clogged gutters on a Manor home, with debris blocking flow and sending runoff over the edge onto fascia, siding and the ground. It belongs here as a plain example of why the whole water path gets checked.

A gutter does one job: it collects water at the roof edge and hands it to a downspout. Leaves and debris stop that handoff. Once the gutter or its outlet clogs, water spills over the front edge onto the fascia board, runs down the siding and lands next to the house, which is exactly where nobody wants it. A clog is rarely only in the gutter. The outlet where the gutter drains into the downspout, the downspout itself and the point where it discharges all need to be checked together, because clearing one part while another stays blocked just moves the overflow. Watching the gutters during a heavy rain shows quickly where the water is really going.
