    Decking & water ingress issue

    Either remove that whole length of deck board next to the door/wall or cut out that section next to the door, if you don't care about appearances you could make a hole big enough (or use a few smaller ones in a line), then use a suitable saw like a jab saw to cut through the rest of the board...

    Choosing a Bosch impact driver for screw driving

    The middle one will work with both 1/2" sockets and normal screwdriver impact bits by using the adapter so unless you do a bit of car maintenance I wouldn't bother with that one. Then that leaves the other two and the more expensive one has more torque, for the sake of £15 I would get that one.

    Shed roof leaking

    Well the rest of your roof will likely fail somewhere else before your Bostic. Permanent means forever so it should not really be used in the description of any kind of repair solution.

    Shed roof leaking

    Those products are fine for this purpose, although they're aimed at quick temporary repairs rather than long term repairs. Besides it seems you have nothing to lose.

    Garden house dimensions maths check

    Yes, this does make you kind of sound a bit like 'one of those customers', as has been requested numerous times, break down exactly what and how you asked for (were there any drawings?) and what has been built, otherwise it looks a bit like you're trolling.

    So my second image is correct. Hmm what a pickle, should've thought about the gutter beforehand, precisely because of this.
