Steep Roof DrainageGutters catch rain water and lead it to a down spout which leads the water away from the building, preventing soil erosion and foundation damage. Both are usually made from vinyl or aluminum. The gutter is U-shaped while the downspout is tube-shaped.
The splashblock is a concrete block that catches the water from the downspout to prevent erosion.
