down pipe bracket problem..

[erik]

Not the most interesting thread I know, but I need to find square, black rainwater downpipe brackets that allow the pipe to sit flush to the wall. All the ones I have found have a small gap behind. I know this is a good idea, but I am replacing old guttering on an outbuilding and the only way I can fix it is flush to the wall. Any suggestions as to where to start looking would be great.
Thanks in anticipation.

dont think you will ever find one, can you not "kick out" the gutter at the top?

Tried everything and failed miserably. Would you believe though, almost by accident I found exactly what I needed at nationalplastics.co.uk - a pretty good website by the look of it. All I need to do now is find out how to get around the £9.99 p & p charge for a couple of £1.50 brackets!!

Thanks for your reply. Much appreciated.
