We had what I thought was a blocked downspout near our crepe myrtle. Today I hired a handyman to clean the downspout and put up a few gutter guards. He found that it was the grate at the end of the drain pipe that was full of St. Augustine grass roots so he went all the way around the house and found all of them, opened them up and cleaned them all out, cleaned out the sand and loose debris from the gutters and cleaned up the yard. Took nearly 4 hours to find them and do the cleaning. Well worth keeping them cleaned out every few months. If you need this service his name is Larry Griffaw 970-306-3790. Someone on TOTV gave me his name 3 years ago and I've used him for various jobs 4 times now, he does good work at fair pricing.
