Zinc Guttering Installation
June 2022

Metal Gutta has been producing and manufacturing metal guttering since 2002. Originally starting out just manufacturing Copper Guttering, due to high demand and changes within the industry, they now produce Copper, Stainless Steel, Zinc and Quartz Zinc guttering. They are still the United Kingdom’s only manufacturer of Copper Guttering and in recent years have seen a big rise in the popularity of metal guttering.

Recently Metal Gutta received an order for some of their Standard Half Round guttering profile in natural Zinc. But what made this order more unusual was that the customer also placed an order for Soffits and Fascias to go behind the guttering itself. These items are completely bespoke to the customer and are made to order so that they will fit the specific requirements for their project.

A well-installed fascia and soffit will help to protect the feet of the roof rafters from the external elements. Soffits are seen from ground level and sit below the guttering, whereas the fascia boards run along the lower edge of the roof and are what the guttering is attached to. Having the Fascias and Soffits match the material of your guttering, not only achieves an aesthetically pleasing look, but also ensures that they will all have the same long life as each other and will not require painting or maintenance.

For this job, Metal Gutta also manufactured some bespoke connectors, to connect the downpipe to the customers drainage system. These connectors allowed the customer to connect their 80mm round downpipe into an 80 x 80mm square connector. Allowing for a seamless transition into the customers drainage system.

Metal Gutta does not offer any installation services with their guttering but have designed each component so that any contractor can install it. All of Metal Gutta’s products are made with a quick and easy installation in mind, meaning any competent DIY enthusiast should also not have any problems fitting their guttering. Furthermore, comprehensive, and detailed fitting instructions are supplied with delivery of your goods. They also have an incredibly helpful sales team who are always more than happy to answer any questions you may have.
