    You installed the rain diverter to high on the downpipe. Once the water butt fills, it will overflow. Your diverter needs to be level with the water entry point on the butt.

    Nice. Just a quick one that diverter really needs to be level with the top of the butt or slightly lower at the diverter will not work as effectively. You are relying on the overflow to create the diversion however if the diverter is higher than the butt

      +Zed Man thanks for the comment, I was trying to avoid buying another down pipe but point taken looks like I'll have to replace. Thanks again!

      Geek Street you could get away with a coupler and then make another cut lower down. May not look great but will save you buying a new piece! Couple will cost a quid or so.

    Easiest I have seen it done and easy to follow.
    Can't wait to start mine. Thank you.
    What's the build up of dirt like how often to check it. Like leafes and moss.

      Guilio McEwan's Space thanks for the comment much appreciated. The build up of moss/leaves is minimal. Don't forget to like and subscribe!

    Your brickwork will be at risk in the winter due to freezing an you have no drain at the bottom of the downpipe

      +paul1962uk thanks for the comment the slabs are at a slight slope and I've got a small piece of down pipe I could connect at the bottom hopefully that will keep the water away from the brick work.

      Yeah, I was trying to do with the existing bits I had.

    you needed a connector for the water butt so you don't have to use the bigger connector pipe.

    the connection on the down pipe is WAY TOO HIGH!! The waterbutt will overflow into the garden...

    No good. Your diverter is much too high as you have conceded in a comment. You should take this upload down as you are misleading people.
