Eavestrough in Breslau
Eavestrough work in Breslau, from the new subdivisions off Woolwich Street to the farmhouses and village lots toward the river.
Breslau splits into two eavestrough jobs. The newer subdivisions behave like Doon South — builder-grade trough, too few outlets, downspouts to be relocated onto your own grading — and are quoted the same way. The older village houses and the farmhouses around them are a different exercise: longer runs, often a steel roof that sheds water and snow fast, and a strong case for 6-inch trough with 3-by-4 downspouts and close hanger spacing. Many rural properties here are on a well and septic system, and roof water discharged over a leaching bed overloads it, so downspouts on that side of the house are run or extended well away from the bed. Breslau is in the Township of Woolwich, so the City of Kitchener's downspout guidance quoted elsewhere on this site is a sensible standard rather than the applicable one; the Region of Waterloo's Sewer Use By-law applies across the Region wherever a property is on municipal sewer. Wood fascia on the older houses gets probed before quoting, exactly as it does in town, and properties near the Grand River may want their downspouts planned around where the land already drains.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work outside Kitchener — Breslau, Baden, the townships?
Yes, on the same terms. Distance does not change the quote. What does is the house: a long rural farmhouse with a steel roof and a single downspout is a different job from a bungalow in Forest Heights, and the site visit is where that gets settled.
Are the downspout rules different in the townships?
The Region of Waterloo Sewer Use By-law applies across the Region, so roof water stays out of the sanitary sewer everywhere. The two-metre guidance quoted on this site is the City of Kitchener's. For a property in Woolwich or Wilmot, the township and, where there is a septic system, the setback to the bed are what govern where a downspout can discharge, and we check before placing one.
Do you handle houses on wells and septic?
Yes, and the septic bed changes the downspout plan. Roof water discharged over a leaching bed overloads it, so downspouts on the bed side of the house are run or extended away from it. If you have a drawing of the bed, have it out for the site visit.
