FAQs

What material is the Polypipe 112mm Square Gutter made from?

The gutter is made from durable and lightweight PVCu (Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride).

Does this gutter require painting?

No, the white finish is integral and requires no painting. It's designed to maintain its appearance with minimal maintenance.

How do I join multiple sections of this gutter?

You will need to use compatible Polypipe square gutter connectors, such as union brackets or angle connectors, depending on the required turn.

What is the main advantage of PVCu over traditional materials?

PVCu is lightweight, resistant to corrosion and rust, requires no painting, and is generally easier and safer to install compared to materials like cast iron.

Can this gutter be used for commercial buildings?

Yes, it is suitable for light commercial applications as well as residential use.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Specific warranty details are best confirmed with the retailer or manufacturer's documentation, but Polypipe products typically offer extended warranties for residential use.

How often should I clean the gutter?

It is recommended to clear debris and check for blockages at least twice a year, typically in late spring and late autumn.

Troubleshooting

Gutter leaking at joints

Ensure joints are clean, dry, and that sufficient solvent cement (if applicable for the specific joint type) has been used, or that seals are correctly seated.

Water overflowing from the gutter

Check for blockages in the gutter or downpipe. Ensure the gutter has an adequate fall towards the downpipe outlet. Verify that the downpipe diameter is sufficient for the roof area.

Gutter sagging

Increase the number or spacing of gutter brackets. Ensure brackets are securely fixed to a sound fascia board.

White finish appears discolored

Clean the gutter surface with a mild detergent and water. Stubborn marks may require gentle scrubbing with a non-abrasive pad.
