The Product
What exactly is seamless aluminium guttering?
Seamless aluminium guttering is formed from a continuous coil of heavy-duty aluminium. Using our mobile extrusion machine, we roll out a single, uninterrupted length of guttering measured exactly to the span of your roofline. Because there are no seams or joined sections along the straight runs, the primary cause of gutter leaks is entirely eliminated.
How long will an aluminium guttering system last?
Aluminium is incredibly durable and naturally highly resistant to corrosion and rust. Under standard UK weather conditions, a professionally installed seamless aluminium system can reliably last upwards of 30 years, drastically outperforming standard plastic uPVC gutters which become brittle and perish over time.
Do you offer different colours and finishes?
Yes, we do. Our aluminium coil is finished with a factory-applied, highly durable powder coating that will not flake or peel. We offer several standard colours, including Black, White, Anthracite Grey, and Brown, ensuring a perfect aesthetic match for both modern builds and traditional Lancashire stone properties.
Installation Process
How long does the installation take?
Because we extrude the guttering on-site, our process is incredibly efficient. For most standard domestic properties (such as a typical 3-bedroom semi-detached home), we can safely remove your old system and fully install the new seamless aluminium system within a single working day.
Do I need to be at home during the installation?
No, as long as we have clear, unrestricted external access to all sides of your property where work is required, you do not need to be present. We will handle the entire installation and clean up the site thoroughly before we leave.
What happens to my old guttering?
We provide a complete end-to-end service. Our team will safely dismantle your old plastic or cast iron guttering and remove it from your property, disposing of all materials responsibly and recycling where possible.
Pricing & Logistics
Are seamless gutters much more expensive than plastic?
While the initial investment is slightly higher than off-the-shelf plastic uPVC, the long-term value is vastly superior. Seamless aluminium is a premium product that requires virtually zero maintenance and eliminates the need for frequent, costly repairs caused by leaking joints. It pays for itself over its 30+ year lifespan.
What areas in the UK do you cover?
Our headquarters is based at Pine Garth Farm in Colne, Lancashire. Our standard service area covers the surrounding regions across the Lancashire and Yorkshire borders.
