Challenge

Challenge: Water Pooling Around the Shed’s Foundation

A homeowner in Pleasant Grove had an outdoor shed with no gutters, causing rainwater to pool around the base. Over time, this standing water could lead to foundation damage, erosion, and moisture-related issues. Without proper drainage, the shed was at risk of rotting, shifting, and structural instability, especially during Utah’s unpredictable weather.

Solution

Solution: Installing a Strong, Weather-Resistant Gutter System

To safeguard the shed and prevent long-term damage, our team at Emerald Gotcha Gutters implemented a high-quality steel gutter system, designed for durability and effective water management:

Installed heavy-duty steel gutters for long-lasting performance against harsh weather.
Ensured proper drainage by directing water safely away from the shed’s foundation.
Eliminated pooling issues to prevent erosion and structural weakening.

Results: A Secure and Weather-Ready Shed

With new steel gutters in place, this Pleasant Grove shed is now fully protected from water damage, ensuring a dry and stable foundation. The homeowner no longer has to worry about pooling water or erosion, and the shed is built to withstand Utah’s seasonal extremes for years to come.

A newly installed downspout seamlessly connects to an underground drainage system, ensuring water flows away from the foundation. This setup helps prevent erosion and pooling near the structure.

The team carefully routed a downspout into a below-ground drainage system, providing long-term protection against water damage by directing runoff efficiently.

A long downspout extension ensures high water flow, reducing the risk of overflow and ice buildup. This system is designed to handle heavy rainfall and snowmelt with ease.

Freshly installed dark bronze gutters seamlessly blend with the home's exterior, offering both aesthetic appeal and top-tier durability for long-lasting performance.
