Hi all.

Please take a look at the picture attached. I want to use the gap between the shed and the garage as storage. What would be the best way to put a roof between the two?

The main issue i have is the shed roof runs rainwater right into the gap. Ive considered running a guttering strip along the shed roof, however i dont have anywhere for the water to drain. Ive considered connecting to the garage downpipe but itll look a right mess. The slabs where the garage down leads to slope down to a channel drain, however i dont have this option with the shed.

Any ideas?

Drop the existing guttering to the bottom of the fascia.

Run new gutter on the shed and return it along that brick garage and connect it to the existing gutter.

Fit a roof sheet just below the garage roof, falling towards the shed. Water will run down it, on to the shed and then back under it to the gutter

Here's the principle with support timbers removed for clarity. You could also fit a fascia across the front to match the garage
