My gutters are overflowing badly. I cleaned them out thoroughly (including an inch of roof gravel runoff), but they’re still overflowing. The front gutter has an obvious bow where it’s spilling, but the downspout output is average. I didn’t see a filter box on the downspout and I ran a blower through it to push out any debris.
Obviously the bow is a problem, but that isn’t present on the back gutters that are having similar overflow issues.
Are my gutters just hung improperly or are the downspouts probably clogged even though they gave zero resistance to my blower and I can’t see a filter box.
I’m no DIY’er, but I know basic home maintenance.
Pic 1 - front gutters overflowing
Pic 2 - side view that shows the outward bend as best I could.
Pic 3 - The downspout for the primary front gutter where the overflow is happening.
Pic 4 - better photo of the front gutter bend
Pic 5 - junction with the smaller front gutter. That gutter isn’t overflowing but you can clearly see that there water building up and leaking through the joint.
Pic 6 - downspout for the smaller front gutter with “normal” flow
Pic 7 - the back gutters. They’re not overflowing as aggressively, but the water is creating the edge , running down the side of the gutter and dripping off or hitting the eves.
