RE: A lean-to - DaveH - 10-22-2014
It was at this stage I thought a rain water gutter was needed, I didn't mind the water cascading on to the grass but not on to another roof.
So fitted the rain water gutter.

I'll give it a coat of paint or two the same colour as the roof and fascias ............... won't be so noticeable.

Dave, no downspout?
p.s.
I "liked" the posts in your post, but the system only lets us like "this" post, but I'm not sure which one of the three it's referring to. Rest assured I do like them all though.

Thanks Willie,
The lean-to slopes towards the back I'll fix a rain water gutter to the lean-to and the downspout from the roof (gutter) above will exit into the gutter on the lean-to. Well that's the plan
. A cunning plan

Looks like a typical project where one thing leads to another. I set out to put a tile back splashon one of the bathroom counters last week and now it has a new counter top, sink and faucet and there is talk of paint.
Nice job on the gutter.

... nah .... your lathe and mill and shaper will skid all over the place on those stones - you need a good thick layer of concrete and rebar !!!!:)
