After locating some gutter brackets, I finally got around to repairing my conservatory guttering (it's been up 2 years) after lots of it got ripped off in the big snow in January.
Anyway, having done that and cleaned it out, I noticed something I don't know if I should be worried about or not.
My spur for replacing the guttering was watching an episode of 'Help My House Is Falling Down' whereby most of the house problems were caused by faulty guttering causing all the rainwater to run on to one corner of the house, undermining the foundations.
I find now that the conservatory guttering, even though we asked the builders to move the drains (which they did) just runs into a hole in the ground.
They haven't put the downpipe into a drain, they just dug a hole and filled it up with pebbles. I never noticed before. This is in the corner of the house where the conservatory adjoins the house. Wouldn't want that undermined.
Should I worry about this? Is it normal? Would you consider it a faulty installation?
Appreciate anyone's thoughts please.
Thank you.
