dog leg gutter
Anyone got any suggestions for a pvc gutter where the wall isn't
straight (who knows why they built the house that way). Over a length of about 6m I guess one end would stand off the wall by about 200 mm if you installed a 2 section straight gutter i.e. there's an angle of something less than 180 degs halfway along. The current joint obviously leaks because it can't be fully snapped into place. I suppose it could be bodged up with silicone, or some kind of lining glued inside to cover the join, but I don't think either would be a permanent solution. Any advice appreciated. |

Just found the adjustable gutter angle on Screwfix, which might well do the job. Should have looked there first shouldn't I? |

And there was me after he last thread about a retarded dog, thinking this was how to make a catheter for a dog that couldn't cock its leg...;0-) |
