Many downspouts also take away the water from a garage drain or a sump pump in a basement or crawl space. The main purpose is to carry the water from the house to the street where it will ultimately end up in a storm sewer. Some downspout drains will come out to a hole in the curb or tie in directly to a storm sewer.
Look at where the pipe goes in the ground and look for ground erosion or mulch that has been washing away. These are all signs that a downspout is clogged. If you look and you see any of those signs, then it’s a good idea to start off with a good cleaning of the pipes in the ground out to the street.
This is a good idea because the result of a clogged downspout drain in the long run could cause: wet wall, mildew, mold, water in the basement through the walls, carpet-drywall damage.
