I have a new Pent shed 7 x 5, I want to put guttering on it, does it need to be on all 4 sides, or just the lower side, which is at the back.

would really appreciate some advise.

Many Thanks

Margaret H

    I have a 7x5 pent shed with a single length of guttering at the back.  Works just fine for me ?. 

    An easy diy job, bought an 8ft length of minifit guttering (cut down to size with a hacksaw), downpipe, brackets and stuff all for under £20 from wickes a few years ago.

    Don't forget to put a bend on the bottom of the downpipe to direct water away from the shed base, and into a suitable soakaway.

    Enjoy your new shed image.

    Scroggin, I had a problem with water run off damaging the back wall of mine.  I think the overhang is too shallow (grr..B&Q).  The gutter fixed it and was cheaper than a new shed.  I'm a little bit older and wiser nowimage.

    Might not be a problem for Margaret, but prevention is better than cure.
