Get ready to go back to School! Find out just how easy Steel Guttering is to install!

We have created some great resources – illustrated guides and brief videos – so there’s really no excuse anymore to tell customers that ‘Galvanised Steel is too difficult to install’.

“It’s so frustrating to hear customers telling you that their builder has tried to talk them out of using Galvanised Steel and tried to persuade them to allow them to install plastic instead.

We’re encouraging customers and tradies alike to reduce their carbon footprint, choose sustainable products, and to go for recyclable and ‘cradle to cradle’ options.

But instead of taking a quick look and learning for themselves just how easy galvanised steel gutters are to install, some builders keep on pushing back against the tide of progress and good intentions and, equally as important, their own customers’ wishes!

They usually end up grudgingly admiring the finished job when the customer has stuck to their guns and insisted on steel. It’s just such a shame that they feel an unnecessary lack of confidence in their own abilities. We hope, with a little help from our resources website, they can get that confidence back!”

The homeowner of this build said: “The product is excellent, and we are so pleased. Exactly the modern design we were looking for.”

The installer, Kevin Kilford said: “The specification of steel was client led. I’d had only had very limited experience with metal previously as I usually fit plastic, but I found the installation easy, and I did think the materials were very well made. I would use it again.”
