I apparently do not take photos of the front of my house. This before shot for the gutters is from November of 2012....it was the only one I could find...... so please ignore the snow in the bottom of the frame.
You can see there is only a short gutter over the front of the porch and has no end caps and no downspout. Yes, water gushed out both sides and ruined whatever plants I put in my black urn... and then slowly took the paint off it, so I need to re-paint it now that the gutters are fixed. Rather, installed correctly? sigh
Here is the house now. the garage side is capped (both condos) and the downspout is on the porch post. We also added a gutter between the two porches with that downspout coming down the center of the two front windows.
SO MUCH BETTER!!! and maintains the mirror image which was very important to our neighbor.
Still to add? black tubing buried in the mulch to pull the water from the downspouts out of the front garden bed and into the grass. I will post more pics when that happens.... before snow-fall is my goal!!
