Hi there. New here so please go easy :)

I live in a 70's semi-detached and am replacing my existing upvc guttering. I measured mine and my neighbours existing dia before ordering which was 100mm dia half round. When I got the new guttering delivered to my house I double checked the dia to find out it was 115mm :eek:. I rang my supplier who said 100mm dia half round upvc is not made anymore. Is this right?!

Also if this is the case how do I connect my new 115m dia to my neighbours existing 100mm dia? At the rear of the house my neighbours guttering runs along their roof into a down pipe in our garden (vice versa at the front). I rang a local roofer who said all I have to do is fix my new 115mm gutter so my neighbours is laid in my new 115mm (with a 30m overlap) and seal the joint. Does this make sense????? Obviously I will use a bracket / union here.

Can anyone shed their own experience on this or any other method if the above does not work?

Many thanks.
