This is an easy DIY project that will help prevent your shed from rotting for as little as £30. The first step is to decide on which way the water will need to fall and where you are going to locate the down pipe. You then need to make a line with a fall of about 20mm over the total distance of the shed, a string line is ideal for this.

Install the guttering brackets using domed head screws as they will be tightening onto plastic. You can secure the hopper to the same line as the brackets to ensure the guttering will run straight.

To fit the guttering end cap and also put the guttering into the hopper use petroleum jelly to help the joints slide together.

The downpipe is installed using a similar method and the final position of the downpipe will determine if you need to create a set or if you can just use a shoe on the end of the pipe.
