Why Sellwood-Moreland Homes Need Downspouts Done Right
Sellwood-Moreland's 1900s–1920s bungalows and cottages are some of Portland's most lovingly restored — and their gutters are often the last original component still failing. Narrow lots put neighboring homes close together, so overflow doesn't just hit your foundation, it hits your neighbor's basement. Half-round profiles and correctly scaled downspouts keep restorations authentic without sacrificing capacity.
