How Far Should You Bury Downspouts From the House?
Here is a perfect example of what NOT to do with your underground buried downspouts.
I want to show you guys why you do not just run a gutter out 10 feet. Fifteen years ago this buried downspout was done by a landscaper. First of all, they did not use a pop-up with a turf restrictor plate so the grass is always growing over the discharge and then when there's a really hard rain it'll actually blow water up out of the grass. The problem is, this should never have been discharged this close to the home. 10 feet? That's too close.
Now actually this downspout should have been ran towards the street and ran another 20-25 feet away from the home. I'm going to show you what this costs the homeowner. When it dumps water in this area the water ends up just collecting on the walk and the area stays saturated .The beautiful brick veneering it's only 15 years old and it's already separating because of this.
