Making a "lean to" roof for a walkway - Part 2

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This video follows the second part of my project to make a lean to roof over a walkway at the side of my house. It has now turned the walkway into a useful, sheltered space.
Part 2 shows how I installed the polycarbonate roof panels and completed the lead flashing. It also shows the addition of the uPVC fascia panels, guttering and drainpipes.
I am a KZread DIYer and am no expert but have built a very solid roof. If this video has helped you with a similar project or given you the confidence to give it a try then please let me know in the comments. I also welcome constructive criticism or advice on how things can be done better.
If you have enjoyed the video please give me a like with a thumbs up and subscribe.
Thanks for watching

    Yes a very good job ! Others should always remember that it is not good practice to discharge ‘ your ‘ rainwater , onto next door neighbours land . Also to remember that any guttering that is fitted should technically not ‘ hang ‘ into your neighbours airspace etc . Just a couple of legal points there , that I know professionally, create neighbour ‘ wars ‘ and disputes future down the line so to speak ! 🇬🇧

    It's handy to have a good relationship with your neighbours. Mine's a complete dickhead so I'd need a slightly different approach to the job. But thanks, these are the best videos I've seen on the subject

    The wall plate cannot exceed 2 5 m if within 2 metres of a boundary. Stick to that and other rules and it becomes an exempt building. So technically the edge of the building could be 2.5 metres high if it was flat roofed.
