Leaking drainage pipe downspout

3 years ago

Hello


My downspout began spraying water. I was thinking it was that the pipe is clogged with leaves. I am in a condo and the property management said they had some clean the eavestroughs 2 weeks ago however I am not sure that they are being truthful as I work form home and I do not recall anyone coming being on my roof. Any thoughts of what else might be causing this? Thank you in advance

    The downspout is clogged, not the eavestroughs.
