Small porch under 6m2

[Cate007]

I am hoping someone can help. I asked the wrong question on a previous post. I’m having a really small porch built. It is circa 1.5m2. I am really struggling with guidance.

Re the roof:
There is no gutter on the side that boundaries on the neighbours. I’m worried about overhang of tiles

1) is there a way of avoiding any overhang or is it simply a case of reducing width of porch to allow a few cm for overhang

2) as it’s under 6m2 does it even need any overhang (the section on drainage suggests nothing mandated but other part of guidance suggests still need to adhere to other parts suggesting a small overhang is necessary)

Any help appreciated
Thanks
Catherine

Ask the neighbours if they want a porch too?

Doubt he neighbour will kick off about overhanging tiles but if they'll be out with a laser line and measure,and you can't be bothered with the stress, make the porch narrower

We built a similar porch which bordered a rented property. The fella we bult the porch for insisted we build it with the gutter overhanging the rented property boundary - said the people that own it would be fine. We did, then ended up cutting the eaves back, after the landlord complained. It didn't look the best afterwards.

I would set it back by around 50mm
