Default gutter-downspout quest.

Hi,


I have an interesting question to ask.


I have an older home, and on it the porch slopes slightly. Enough of
a slope that the gutter on it slopes the opposite way - away from the
nearest downspout. The rainwater therefore spills over the gutter end
and on to the yard...


How can I fix it? Other than repositioning the gutter (releveling)
which isn't an option, what else? another downspout, etc. AND can I
do this myself?


Thanks
Rich


If you cannot reposition the gutter then you are unable to fix this.
Call in any handyman or carpenter.


Thanks for the input...adding another downspout at the downward
sloping end isn't an option? why not? just curious.
