Round to square gutter connector
Anonymous user 15/03/2024 - 2.56 PM
Have just replaced my front guttering on a semi detached house and had to connect my square gutter to my neighbors round but there seems to be a step in levels between the round and square so my gutter has to rise about 5 MM before it drains is this normal
Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

You can buy gutter onions with half round one end and square the other end so the two different gutters join properly

It’s not normal , but it’s only due to the difference in profile of the guttering , as long as it doesn’t overflow or leak then it will be fine, I do however believe it could create a problem for leaves and dirt to build up and cause a partial blockage , it will require frequent maintenance in the British weather if it begins to create a blockage

They have various connections that you can buy. A Square to Round Adaptor is what you need by the sounds of it. It now should flow perfect if they have done the Guttering correctly.
