Pizza oven canopy

Roof, gutter and flashing

Harry wants the gutter on the house side. John would rather have none. This is how it is drawn so the tilt cannot be seen.

The answer to John's question. Yes, the tilt can be hidden. The fascia and the timber underside stay dead level. The roof sheet falls back to the wall inside the box, about 30 over its length, and never rises above the top of the fascia.

What sits above the canopy. Only the apron flashing: a level strip of Monument Matt 100 high on the wall, which stops rain running down the cladding and in behind. The gutter is below the roofline, out of sight.

Where the water goes. Out of the gutter at the left-hand end, straight down a downpipe about 230 from the battened corner. Harry decides whether that pipe is hidden behind the cladding (preferred) or on the face of the wall.

The risk. A gutter against the house that blocks with leaves overflows at the wall. The drawings give it an overflow slot through each side fascia and a guard. That detail has not been agreed with Harry.

Before the paving. A 90 stormwater pipe to a capped stub at the downpipe position has to be in the ground before the travertine is laid.

“i'd prefer it without, however he said it's going to be the best. so the canopy will need to tilt slighlty towards the house. potentially we can mask the tilt look with the flashings rremaining at 90 degrees?”

To confirm or price

Harry: is an overflow through the side fascias acceptable, or does he want another way out for a blocked gutter?
Harry: downpipe hidden behind the cladding, or on the face?
Harry: how high does he want the apron flashing, and does it tuck under the cladding?

Section, Rev EDrawing, to scale. The roof sheet is the thin line inside the dark box, lowest at the wall.

From aboveComputer model, to scale, not a photograph. Looking down on the canopy. The strip on the wall above it is the apron flashing. The roof sits inside the level fascia. Everything beyond the window and the corner is guessed.

The eave it copiesCropped from John's photo. The existing boxed eave right of the window: 145 fascia, timber-look underside. The canopy is the same thing, 1300 deep where this is 630.
