    What Downspout Repairs Do We Handle?

    A blocked, cracked, or misdirected downspout puts your foundation, landscaping, and basement at risk every time it rains. We fix the cause, not just the visible symptom.

    Blocked and Clogged Downspout Clearing

    Leaves, seed pods, and compacted debris collect in elbows and underground connections. We clear blockages from the full pipe length, including lower elbows, and confirm they are clear before leaving.

    Disconnected and Loose Downspout Reattachment

    Disconnected sections send water down the exterior wall rather than through the pipe. We reattach and re-secure with the correct brackets and fasteners for your wall substrate, and realign the full run.

    Cracked, Bent, or Damaged Section Replacement

    Sections damaged by ice or impact cannot be patched reliably. We replace with matching aluminum profile and colour, reconnected cleanly without visible mismatches or leak points.

    Downspout Extension and Redirection

    If your downspout discharges too close to the foundation, we install extensions and elbows to redirect water at least 1.5 to 2 metres from the foundation perimeter.

    Mandatory Downspout Disconnection

    The City of Toronto requires most residential downspouts to be disconnected from the sewer system. If your downspout drains into an underground connection, it may need to be updated. We disconnect from the standpipe where required, cap the connection, and redirect the outlet so water flows safely away from your home and your neighbor's property.

    Downspout Repair in Toronto, Mississauga & the GTA

    If your downspouts are blocked, broken, or directing water the wrong way, that water is likely ending up at your foundation.

    Why Choose Century Aluminum for Downspout Repair?

    We Trace the Problem to the Source

    Elbows at the top of the pipe are where blockages most often lodge and stay. We clear the full length, not just the accessible top section, and confirm clear flow from outlet to ground before finishing.

    We Know Toronto's Downspout Bylaw

    Downspouts should not discharge into the city sewer system in most residential setups. We disconnect, cap, and redirect properly to meet Toronto bylaw requirements where applicable.

    Part of Your Full Eavestrough System

    A downspout repair that ignores gutter pitch, outlet position, and foundation drainage grade often misses the reason it failed. We check the full picture in the same visit.

    Quick Downspout Repair Turnaround When Possible

    We stock standard downspout profiles and colors. Clearing, reattachment, and single-section replacement are typically completed in one visit.

    Signs Your Downspout Needs Repair

    • Gutters overflowing even after cleaning: Downspout below is blocked – water has nowhere to go.
    • Water running down the exterior wall below the gutter: A disconnected joint sending water down the face of the building.
    • Pooling or soft ground near the foundation: Downspout discharging too close to the house or outlet is blocked.
    • Visible cracks, dents, or separated joints on the pipe: Damaged sections letting water escape mid-run.
    • Downspout rattling or visibly detached from the wall: Loose brackets failing and getting worse with every wind and ice event.

    Gary was recommended by a friend, and he did a great job putting new siding on our house. Very professional, reasonable price, and easy to work with. He provided lots of options, answered all of my questions, and paid attention to the finer details, which shows he takes pride in his work. He even took some of the scrap that I had sitting around after some demolition I had done in preparation for Gary and team. I would absolutely recommend Gary to anyone who needs siding or aluminum work.

    We used Gary and his team to replace the original, 30-year-old eavestroughs on our home with a better, modern system. His quote was good, he showed up exactly when promised, and did a great job. We will use Century again if we need more work done. Thanks Gary!

    Gary was great to work with through the entire process. I reached out for a quote and Gary was quick turning that around and was really helpful in answering all my questions. When it came time to do the work, he walked me through the work he would be doing in detail. The new eavestroughs look amazing, they did such a great job! I'd happily hire Gary and team again.

The work was completed as promised and the site was kept tidy and thoroughly cleaned up after the work was completed. His team was courteous and professional. We strongly recommend Century Aluminum.

    Gary did an outstanding job repairing my eavestroughs, and I am completely happy with the results. His communication was fast and clear from the start, keeping me informed every step of the way and even fit me in earlier when he had an opening. He took the time to offer different options to fix the issue and helped me choose the best path forward. The quote was transparent with no hidden surprises, and the work itself was finished quickly and effectively. Most importantly, after a recent heavy rain, I can confirm there is no leaking at all. I strongly recommend Gary to anyone needing eavestrough repairs and would hire him again. Five stars.

    We had an excellent experience with Gary from Century Aluminum. A smallish job needed to be done redirecting a downspout. Gary explained options, including cost effectiveness, and booked that job relatively quickly between their larger commitments.

    Very pleased with the professionalism, workmanship, and responsiveness of Gary and his team. They completed the work exactly as requested and quoted, and I would bring them back for another job in a heartbeat. They corrected the pitch of my eavestroughs using new material and strategically repositioned the downspouts to address a longstanding drainage problem. I now feel much more confident that my property is better protected from future water issues.

    I recently had Century Aluminum come out to reinstall a fallen fascia panel and seal the window capping on the sides of my home. From start to finish, the experience was excellent. They were prompt in responding to my inquiry and came in at a fair price. What really stood out was their honesty — they used the existing materials rather than pushing unnecessary replacements, which I genuinely appreciated. It's refreshing to deal with a company that puts the customer's best interests first rather than upselling at every opportunity. The team was friendly and professional throughout, and the work was done well. I'd have no hesitation recommending Century Aluminum to anyone in the Toronto area looking for reliable, customer-focused exterior work.

    Gary was extremely informative and patient when he dropped by for quote and that was one reason I went with them instead of the others we got a quote from. The job was done with precision and patience and Gary and his team were quite polite and helpful. They pointed out and helped resolve some of the other issues that weren't in the other contract either. Good service, good experience.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Downspout Repair in Toronto

    Why is water overflowing from my gutters if they are clean?

    A blocked downspout. Even with a clean gutter channel, a clog in the downspout elbow or underground connection backs up and causes overflow. We flush the full pipe length to confirm flow from top to discharge point.

    Downspouts must be disconnected from the sanitary and combined sewer system and redirected to drain onto the property surface. Homes with older underground connections may be non-compliant. We disconnect, cap, and redirect in compliance with city guidelines.

    Yes. Downspouts are a separate component. If your eavestroughs are sound but the downspout is blocked, cracked, or misdirected, we fix the downspout without touching the gutter system.

    The City of Toronto recommends at least 4 to 6 feet, flowing away from the house and away from neighbouring properties. Where the grade slopes toward the house, a longer extension or splash pad may be needed.

    Bracket failure from freeze-thaw cycling, ice load bending the connection points, or brackets never properly fastened into the wall substrate. We replace failed brackets with the correct hardware for your wall material.
