Porch roof

Speakerboxx · 20-11-2020 2:01am #1

Is there any neat methods of putting a trap and gulley and wavin pipe into or through a footpath to take water from a downpipe off a small porch roof? This should have been done when footpaths were going down but was forgotten by builder.

Thanks

Building regs state that roofs 6 sqm or less do not require gutters.
Would this be an option?
Otherwise, id suggest cutting out a section of the path and redoing after pipework installed.

I have a flat slab as the roof but this is turning green along the sides from water dripping down it. Would prefer if i could take the water off.

How would one bring water off a pavement from downpipe with no gully in position? Is it possible?
