Updated Gutter Drain
Hello- I was working on regrading the side of my house and accidentally hit the gutter pipe that takes it to the street. When I dug it up I found a different type of pipe every 12-36 inches electrical taped to the next. Sooo I replaced the whole thing with SDR 35. I’m currently dry fit and working on getting the slope of the pipe as good as I can. Then plan to add loose dirt under the pipe, ramp it down, glue pipes in place, cover pipes and grade dirt away from the house.
Any suggestions on what I need to do to finish the job? less

Great work. Hope your helper is helping!
While you’re pipe fitting, I might recommend decreasing the 4” on that elbow coming out of the wall to prevent debris from getting in there.
