The work that was done on my house was amazing. Ben broke down every cost, was detailed and gave me numerous gutter options and let me decide what I wanted, while also explaining the possible problems I may have for not selecting certain things.” — Sean B.

Rain Chains Versus Gutter Downspouts

Although most homeowners have gutter downspouts installed on their homes, there might be a better alternative. A rain chain is an excellent way to divert rainwater away from your home, and it comes with many advantages that you don’t get with a gutter downspout. Rain chains in Charleston, SC, are not only more attractive but if installed correctly, they can work just as well as a downspout gutter system.

What is a Rain Chain?

Rain chains have been used in Japan for centuries and are just starting to become popular in the United States as an excellent alternative to traditional gutter downspouts. They come in a vast number of shapes and designs, but all seek to move rainwater away from the foundation of your home and deposit it where it is needed in your yard. They are called rain “chains” because some of them are actual chains, while other systems can use bells or cups that are much more whimsical and work in the same manner.

It is All About the Installation

One disadvantage of using rain chains over gutter downspouts for your rain gutters is that if they aren’t installed properly, they can lead to excess water around your home’s foundation. Rain chains aren’t like downspouts that divert water away from your home; if they are designed well, they can be used to flow water around your yard to places where your landscaping can absorb excess water.

Also, rain chains tend not to withstand heavy or excessive rain. Due to the weather conditions in Charleston, it is imperative that you have a professional install them properly to keep the integrity of your foundation sound.

If you are considering rain chains versus traditional gutter downspouts, they are much more aesthetically pleasing. They can also make listening to the sound of rainwater hitting and draining from your roof much more whimsical.
