You’ve solved an issue for me. The guttering has only been installed for a few weeks and the noise was quite loins. Many thanks for sharing your solution.
I did this without the glue and they did indeed come out and that maddening sound started again. The down spout is already installed though, os I may just have to wait for a dry day and go up and glue it in up there. Will make note of the right kind of glue to get so I can get it soon at the local home depot. I used plastic mesh scouerers though, wondering if I should buy these more standard scouring pads.
@@InspectCanada thanks. Just found out this morning that I'll have to be moved out to somewhere else in a few months. So I'll probably just keep shoving them up there instead of spending money on glue for it.
Year late but that's my fix right now. Pushed a 2x4 in there amd bam, silent. I'm not worried about debris clogging it cause we don't have any trees near by
Hi, maybe. It will definitely get ugly with time. This is an exterior gutter and there is plenty of mold floating around naturally outside. A fully mulded sponge would make zero difference.
Mate! you socketed the bend the wrong way!......the bend should be female socket and downpipe male. The only thing that stops it from pissing water at the join is the roof below it......
@@InspectCanada why you do videos like this if you don't like a coment. I understand your showing how to stop a dripping noise but the way the you putting the parts back its not right. You are fixing one thing and creating a other issue.
@@InspectCanada He was trying to say the elbow should slip OVER the downspout. That is not fixing the whole gutter system. It literally took more time to glue that scotch brite pad than to assemble correctly. Downspout systems are designed to funnel the water into the next component.
This is an epic example how construction goods is totally lack of renovation and competition in the west. Imagine if this happens in China, a downpipe with built in noise cancelling will be everywhere the next day, so ubiquitous that if without you wouldn't be able to sell any anymore.

Just had new gutters and downspouts installed. This solved the noise problem immediately. Thanks for sharing this simple and effective solution!
why new downspouts would solve this issue?

worked very well! thanks! can sleep peacefully now!
Thank you so much! I have these scrub pads in my kitchen so I'll be fixing my down spouts today. Simple & inexpensive fix fast!

Hi, it should wiri. Good luck

Thank you! I have the exact same problem. I used a piece of wood originally, but it rotted of course. Now I know the best fix.
Awesome!

You installed the elbow wrong, it will now leak. The downspout should be inside the elbow not outside
I'm not there to fix the gutter, it was already like that, I'm just there to quiet it.
Suggestions for a gutter system that sees lots of pine needles? My worry is this would catch them and build up
Hi, might be best to install a strainer at the top of the gutter to prevent debris from going down and possibly clogging your drains.
Great advice, thank you sir ! 😎👍
I like the idea, but will the sponge eventually get moldy?
Any long term risks there?

Great Tip ! Gonna try this when the snow melts in a few weeks ! Great 👍 videos !
Thank you for watching our videos
Thank you for your video. I’ll sleep tonight 😊

@@paulnaumann1332 Yo, it was already like that, not there to fix the gutter, I'm fixing the noise.
Crimp part goes in to the A elbow 😒
Can I see your video about this? 😒

@@jorgejuarez1001 Hi, this is how it was when I got there. I'm not fixing the whole gutter system, I'm just making it quiet.

how to solve noise from rain at the up-spout point at the very top of the roof?
thank you!!! this was easy and perfect!
Won’t the sponge freeze in the winter?
Sure will but there won't be much dripping in the winter and it will still work frozen.
Just amazing. Thank you Sir
What if the noisy is from the top part of the gutter? How to glue spong there?
Do you mean that there is an elbow higher up the gutter? If so, yes you will need to. The noise is from dripping water that hits an elbow or bent.
@@InspectCanada thank you for the reply, will try to do so
Caution... If you have a lot of trees, this could cause a build up of leaves in your down spout. If trees aren't an issue, this is a great solution.
You should get a leaf filter for your gutter in that case@@Bozly3
Awesome video, merci beaucoup!
Great video. Thx🙏
Thank you so much

your elbow shall NOT insert into but the other way around......LOL
That's how it was when I got there. I wasn't gonna redo their gutters but just quiet them. 😱
Thankyou…….🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍👍🇦🇺
