FAQs

What size gutter is this stopend compatible with?

This stopend is designed specifically for 115mm high-flow capacity gutter systems.

How is the stopend fitted?

It fits externally over the gutter. First, clip the back end onto the gutter, then pull the gutter gently down into the front clip to create a seal.

What does 'external' mean in this context?

'External' means the stopend fits over the outside of the gutter profile, as opposed to an internal stopend which fits inside the gutter.

Does this product come with fixings?

The product itself is a single unit designed to seal the gutter end. You will need separate fascia brackets for support.

What is the warranty period?

This FloPlast product comes with a 20-year guarantee.

Why is a fascia bracket important near the stopend?

A fascia bracket within 150mm of the stopend is crucial to support the weight of the gutter and prevent the end from sagging, ensuring proper water flow and system integrity.

Can I paint the stopend?

While the cast iron effect is a finish, painting is generally not recommended as it may affect the material's properties or the aesthetic finish. Consult FloPlast for specific advice on finishing.

Troubleshooting

Stopend does not fit securely

Ensure you are using the correct 115mm gutter profile. Check for any obstructions or damage to the gutter edge or the stopend itself. Make sure the back clip is engaged before pulling the front down.

Water leakage at the joint

Verify that the gutter is fully seated within the front clip and that the rubber seal is properly positioned and undamaged. Ensure the stopend is pushed on firmly. Re-seat the stopend if necessary.

Gutter appears to be sagging near the stopend

This indicates insufficient support. Immediately install a fascia bracket within 150mm of the stopend as per installation guidelines to rectify the sag and prevent potential damage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adds a premium, traditional aesthetic to modern guttering.
  • Ensures a watertight seal with its innovative fitting mechanism.
  • Designed for high-volume water runoff, suitable for larger roof areas.
  • The pre-fitted clip streamlines the installation, reducing potential errors.
  • Backed by a 20-year guarantee for long-term reliability.

Cons

  • Requires an additional fascia bracket within 150mm to prevent sagging.
  • External fit may not be suitable for all existing gutter configurations.
  • Primarily aesthetic; does not increase the gutter's actual water capacity beyond its design.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the end of the gutter run is clean and free from debris.
  2. Clip the back end of the stopend onto the gutter first.
  3. Gently pull the gutter downwards to seat it fully inside the front clip.
  4. This action exerts pressure on the pre-fitted rubber seal, creating a watertight joint.
  5. Important: Install a fascia bracket within 150mm of the stopend to provide adequate support and prevent sagging.

Compatibility:

  • This stopend is designed for 115mm FloPlast high-flow capacity gutter systems.
  • It is specifically an *external* fitting, meaning it slides over the exterior of the gutter.

Care:

  • Periodically check the seal and surrounding area for any debris buildup.
  • Clean with water and a mild detergent if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
