Water Problems Have a Cause, We Fix It at the Source
At The Downspout Doctor, we focus on one thing: controlling water around your home before it causes serious damage. Poor drainage, clogged or misdirected downspouts, and moisture buildup can lead to foundation issues, basement leaks, and unhealthy crawlspaces. Our job is to stop those problems before they spread.
We specialize in buried downspout extensions, French drain systems, sump pump installations, and full basement and crawlspace encapsulation. Every solution is designed specifically for your property, ensuring water is moved safely away from your home and moisture stays where it belongs — outside.

CORE DRAINAGE SOLUTIONS
GOAL: KEEP WATER OUT
- Our Services
Buried Downspout Extensions
Safely redirect rainwater away from your foundation with professionally installed buried downspout extensions. This solution helps prevent soil erosion, foundation settling, and basement water issues by moving water underground and away from your home.
French Drain Installation
Our French drain systems are designed to collect and redirect groundwater before it causes damage. Ideal for Sheridan, IN area soil conditions, French drains relieve pressure around your foundation and help keep basements and yards dry.
Basement Gutter Installation
Basement gutter systems collect water along basement walls and floors and channel it to a controlled drainage point. This interior drainage solution helps manage water intrusion and protects your basement from ongoing moisture problems.
Sump Pump Installation
A properly installed sump pump is your home’s last line of defense against basement flooding. We install reliable sump pump systems that actively remove collected water and discharge it safely away from your foundation.
Basement Encapsulation
Basement encapsulation seals walls and floors to block moisture, humidity, and air infiltration. This helps prevent mold growth, reduce odors, and protect your foundation while improving overall indoor air quality.
Crawlspace Encapsulation
Crawlspace encapsulation creates a sealed, controlled environment beneath your home. By eliminating excess moisture and outside air, this service helps protect structural components, improve energy efficiency, and reduce moisture-related issues.
- What We Do
We provide targeted drainage and moisture-control solutions designed to protect your foundation, basement, and crawlspace from long-term water damage.
{01}
BURRIED DOWNspout EXTENSIONS
Surface downspouts often dump water right next to your foundation, causing erosion and basement leaks. Our buried downspout extensions safely route rainwater underground and discharge it far away from your home where it can’t cause damage.
- Prevent foundation erosion
- Eliminate pooling near your home
{02}
FRENCH DRAIN INSTALLATION
French drains collect and redirect groundwater before it enters your basement or crawlspace. We design and install systems that relieve hydrostatic pressure and keep moisture from building up around your foundation walls.
- Controls groundwater buildup
- Reduces basement and crawlspace flooding
{03}
SUMP PUMPS & ENCAPSULATION
When moisture gets inside, the right system makes all the difference. We install sump pumps, interior drainage, and full crawlspace encapsulation to manage water, improve air quality, and protect your home from mold and structural issues.
