Gutter options for dutch style shed

[varosd 1,185]

I bought a used 14 x 16 Dutch style shed

door is on the side not the ends and its all about drips coming off the roof.

regular gutters would be too big.

have seen mobile home gutters but not sure if they would work.  only seen them on internet.

I could just tuck some metal or vinyl J channel under the shingles above the door. tilt it so the water would run off.

any thoughts?

The J-channel way is probably the way to go...seriously Don.     If you want to make your own...half round PVC may work for you.

Thanks Dino!

Here is some pictures when I went to buy it.

some typical rot at the bottom the the T1-11 plywood siding. the rim joist, etc are all solid.

I will cut out the rot and just replace with same siding but looking at vinyl siding it.

owner changed his mind and wanted off his land ASAP and I had to get it moved to one side of my driveway until the site is dug out and graveled. digging out this weekend.

Nice shed and careful digging. Might be a good idea to wear a hard hat!

Did he say hard hat?

Ya Don, I was thinking with the doors on that side, you would have little to no room to hang a real gutter.

They really mean Deutsche as in German.  folks here in Pennsylvania just started calling them Dutch

 

the actual roof style is also known as Gambrel

put the door on the front and you wont need troughs that don't work in the winter anyway
