Reply to comment by G-bone714 in Downpipe bend required for gutter by altreunau

The arch would help prevent water splashing back behind the white halfpipe?

I think so because the back wouldn’t be cut out at all. The white half pipe will act as the bend. I’ve done this and it worked fine. You can still go back to your original plan if you don’t like the results.

Yeah the problem is, the white half pipe isn't secured, so I'd still be concerned that it could shift downwards e.g. kicked, heavy storm, wind etc. and the water would still flow back against the wall. So I think I'll go with my original solution.
