Gutter Extensions : Longer lengths ?

[Clarence Martin]

Do pre--cast concrete gutter downspout splash blocks come in longer lengths? Need to run the water away from the right part of the Bilco door.


Thanks,

A splashblock does its job with <1' of concrete... if you need a longer pathway, I would just find some stone blocks in the store's garden section and use a little silicone to extend it. Maybe not as pretty as one block, but certainly lighter to install ;)

With one elbow, a tee and a length of PVC pipe you can run the down spout underground out away from the house and have it re-emerge to run gently over the lawn. It helps to put a grate type fitting where it comes up through the grass to keep out grass and dirt. Underground downspout drain. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJBPETVKt8s)

Why not just pour one in place? Then you could potentially get creative and shape it or embed stones in the surface to not make it look like a concrete splash block.
