Hi all,
We've recently had a porch built which was mainly a DIY sort of project. All is well, guttering is up but ive stumbled upon a bizzare situation with our current gullie for the main roof. Not sure if this is correct.
Essentially the main roof guttering is feeding into a gullie on the side which i would like to also attach the porch guttering to. On closer inspection (and a clean out of the gullie) it seems it has no outlet? Ive dug around the ground to the side and there is a massive pipe coming from the gullie, but from the inside, i see no way water can run into it.. Am i missing something?
Also, while i am here, does anyone have a recommendation as to the best way i can connect the guttering from the porch to the drain without creating an eyesore and having running it along the wall to the other outlet?
Gullie with no outlet but looks "connected" with pipe?
New Porch drain currently going nowhere
Attached revelant pictures.
Many thanks!
