Gutters and down pipes...

Well, now that the rendering is complete I need to fit the down pipes to the gutters. I actually installed the gutters when I built the roof, but I could not install the down pipes because of the rendering. This weekend (18th April 2004) I installed the down pipes which will protect the house even more, and finishes the outside off.

This is the down pipe at the back of the house. I still need to fit the gully's at the bottom, but that can happen later, when I am working on all the underground drains. This is the back porch down pipe. This was quite an important one to get fitted, as the wall was a bit damp at the bottom. That should be sorted now though... And the front pipe.....i can tell how fascinated you all are by now.......... :-)
