Saint-Ambroise-de-Kildare: the extension that no longer gets in the mower's way
You know the scene: the downspout extension is in the lawnmower's path, so you take it off. And it never comes back. The water, meanwhile, falls at the foot of the wall all summer.
- Complete maintenance: roof blown off, gutters emptied by hand, downspouts cleared
- Included at no charge: fasteners, up to 2 joints and 10 hangers

The problem with ordinary extensions
A fixed extension is in the way: you mow around it, you trip over it, the snowblower catches it in winter. As a result, many downspouts end up with no extension, and roof water empties right next to the foundation.
The swivel extension
- It swivels 360° and tilts: you point it where the water should go, and turn it while you mow.
- Permanent, quick installation.
- High-density plastic that holds up from -40 °C to +80 °C.
- Made in Canada.
- Fits the most common downspouts (2⅝ in., 2×3 in., 3×3 in.).
It costs more than a basic extension. Our guide to the 8 types of extensions compares all the options.
At the same time as the maintenance
We can install the extensions during your maintenance: gutters emptied by hand, downspouts cleared, up to 2 joints and 10 hangers included, before/after photos. Point the water toward the lawn, away from the house, and never toward the neighbour. Good practices.
Municipal bylaws
Gutters: what the bylaw says in Saint-Ambroise-de-Kildare
We haven't verified the official text for Saint-Ambroise-de-Kildare yet. Here are the rules found in the vast majority of municipalities in the Laurentians and Lanaudière:
- Never connect a downspout to the foundation drain (weeping tile) or to the sewer: it is prohibited in most municipalities in Quebec.
- Release the water on the surface, onto a permeable area (lawn, flower bed), away from the foundation. Required distances generally range from 1 m to 2 m, and 1.5 m is the most common.
- Don't direct water toward the street, the driveway, the sidewalk or the neighbouring lot (Civil Code of Québec, art. 983).
Before any work, confirm the rule with the Saint-Ambroise-de-Kildare urban planning department. During our inspection, we flag any downspout connected to the drain or emptying too close to the foundation.
