Eavestrough & Downspout

At Ontario Downspout Service, we specialize in professional eavestrough installation and repair across Toronto and the GTA. Your eavestroughs play a crucial role in protecting your home from water damage by directing rainwater safely away from the foundation through well-functioning downspouts.

We offer full-service eavestrough and gutter solutions, including precise repairs, seamless replacements, and custom-fit installations. Our work is tailored to the specific needs of your property, ensuring water is managed properly to keep your home safe and dry year-round.

Eavestrough Installation & Replacement

If your gutters are leaking, pulling away from the house, or simply not doing their job, it might be time for new eavestroughs. At Ontario Downspout Service, we provide professional eavestrough installation in Toronto and across the Greater Toronto Area, using high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship to ensure your home is protected from rainwater year-round.

Our experienced eavestrough installers begin every project with a close inspection of your existing eavestrough system. We look at the age, condition, and performance to determine whether repair or full gutter replacement is the best option. When replacement is needed, we customize the solution to fit your home’s structure and drainage needs, preventing future water issues before they start. Whether you’re building new or upgrading an older system, our installation and replacement services are designed to give you peace of mind and long-lasting results.

Eavestrough Repairs

Ontario Downspout Service offers reliable and effective eavestrough repair in Toronto, helping homeowners protect their properties from water damage without the need for a full replacement.

Our team handles everything from minor gutter repairs to more involved fixes, whether it’s sealing a leak, realigning a section, or securing a loose joint. We assess the entire system to make sure rainwater is draining properly and not pooling where it shouldn’t. If you’ve noticed sagging, overflow during storms, or visible damage to your eavestroughs, it’s time to bring in a professional. We’ll restore your system’s performance quickly and efficiently, so your home stays dry and protected through every season.

Eavestrough Cleaning

Keeping your gutters clean isn’t just about looks — it’s a key part of protecting your home. Our professional eavestrough cleaning service helps homeowners maintain both function and curb appeal by removing the debris that leads to clogs, overflow, and water leaks. When leaves, twigs, and sludge build up in your eavestroughs, they can block the flow of rainwater, causing it to spill over and pool where it shouldn’t.

At Ontario Downspout Service, we clean your eavestroughs thoroughly and safely, making sure they’re clear and ready to channel water away from your home the way they’re meant to. Regular cleaning not only prevents costly damage, but it also extends the life of your entire drainage system. Whether you’re booking seasonal maintenance or need a one-time deep clean, we make it easy to stay on top of it.

Downspout Repair & Replacement

A properly working downspout is just as important as the gutters it connects to. Without it, rainwater has nowhere to go — and that can quickly lead to flooding, erosion, or foundation issues. At Ontario Downspout Service, we offer both downspout repairs and full downspout installation services for homeowners across Toronto and the GTA. Whether your existing system is cracked, disconnected, or poorly placed, we’ll make sure everything is working together to keep water moving away from your home.

We assess how your gutters and downspouts are functioning as a complete drainage system and recommend the best fix based on your property’s layout. Sometimes a simple repair does the job, but in other cases, a new installation provides a longer-term solution. Either way, our goal is the same — protecting your home from water with smart, effective drainage that holds up through every storm.

FAQ

The terms “gutter” and “eavestrough” are often used interchangeably in Canada, but they refer to the same part of a home’s exterior drainage system. An eavestrough is the channel that runs along the edge of your roof, collecting rainwater and directing it toward the downspouts. In other regions, especially the U.S., “gutter” is the more commonly used term. Regardless of the name, both serve the same essential function: protecting your home from water damage by guiding rainwater away from your foundation.

At Ontario Downspout Service, we recommend and primarily install 6″ heavy-gauge aluminum eavestroughs. This system offers superior performance over standard 5″ options, especially during heavy rainfalls. The larger size improves flow capacity and allows for the installation of wider downspouts, which greatly reduces the risk of overflow and water pooling near the foundation. Heavy-gauge aluminum is also durable, rust-resistant, and low-maintenance — making it one of the best choices for homeowners in Toronto and the GTA.

Visible signs like sagging, leaks, rust, or water pooling around your foundation are common indicators that your eavestrough system isn’t working properly. If the damage is isolated to a small section, a targeted repair might be enough. However, if your gutters and downspouts are older, poorly sloped, or repeatedly clogging, a full replacement may be the more effective long-term solution. We offer both eavestrough repair and replacement services in Toronto and can assess your system to recommend the best course of action.

We recommend cleaning your eavestroughs at least twice a year — typically in the spring and fall. In areas with lots of surrounding trees or after a heavy storm, more frequent cleanings might be necessary. Regular eavestrough cleaning helps prevent clogs and water leaks while maintaining curb appeal and extending the life of your system. Our professional eavestrough cleaning service ensures that rainwater can flow freely and safely away from your home.

Yes, downspout replacement is possible without needing to replace the entire gutter system. If your eavestroughs are in good condition but the downspouts are damaged, disconnected, or undersized, targeted downspout repairs or a new installation can improve drainage and prevent water issues. We’ll evaluate the entire setup to make sure your gutters and downspouts are working together properly to protect your home from water.

Mark and his crew did a great job replacing the flat roof on my house and dealing with a leak I had into my living room by replacing a strip of roof and eaves trough along a side of my house in an awkward narrow area between my house and my neighbours. Mark shared photos as they removed the old materials so I could see the problem areas and understand how the...
