Benefits
Metal guttering is often more in keeping with older properties, particularly when ornamental styles are chosen. It’s sustainable and recyclable, making it perfect for eco-friendly projects too. Cast iron is one of the most robust materials for guttering. While brittle plastic can be prone to leaking after a few years, cast iron easily lasts a century or more with minimal maintenance.
