Hello
Im wanting to put guttering on a bay flat roof. The roof extends over the front door.
The roof is a grey fibre glass with fascias. ( awful looking job ripped off years ago cant afford to put it right)
The rear of the brackets hang to low which wont look nice looking outward from the house.
The bay gets a 35ft gable end run of wall rain i dont think the smaller shed gutter will hold enough rain. Ive purchased the 120mm
Is there a different gutter system i could use?
Ive considered a pvc white trim board but it would also look odd.
Thanks

A bit off the wall I know (excuse the pun), but how about square gutter screwed directly to the plastic fascia with stainless self tappers 20mm or so from the top of the gutter, extra support from securing the downpipe to the wall.
 
Thanks down pipe will be just a few corners then popped into the house down pipe. Ive added another pic. The thick black line is house down pipe the red lines what im hoping to fix up. Its Bugging me now as should be a simple job.

I would try the ST screw route into the white plastic, the 90deg end take it around the corner and screw the stop end to the wall, the other end will get extra support from the downpipe.
The square gutter should sit under the black roofing overhang, a spot of silicone on the screws will cover any leakage questions.
 
I have seen alluminium preformed/ pressed guttering which is screwed directly to the facia. It has a flat back with a fancy front profile. They used to come with flat strips of ali and run it through various rollers to make the gutter on site, made to measure. See Ebay adverts - they still do it. It had the advantage of no rust and large capacity. Disadvantage is that you can't modify the original installation in any way. Expensive 24 pounds per meter, fitted.
