It was not until the eighteenth century that lead rainwater goods became common on smaller houses, particularly in urban areas, and from the mid-eighteenth century the roofs of town houses were usually finished behind a parapet, which concealed a lead-lined gutter.
Lead has been known to last hundreds of years even in exposed conditions. This is because the surface of rain-washed lead carbonates to form a protective layer which prevents deterioration. When correctly installed, the greatest threat to all forms of leadwork is not so much weathering as the ease with which the material can be melted down and reused.
Tuscan can offer a range of bespoke rainwater pipes, Downcomers and Hopper Heads to match your existing designs. All our lead products are bespoke and therefore made to order.
Cast iron offers an authentic appearance that complements traditional architecture. It’s also robust, long-lasting, and often required to meet listed building consent conditions. Unlike plastic alternatives, cast iron guttering retains the historic integrity of a building and weathers beautifully over time.
It’s also worth noting that modern cast iron systems benefit from factory-applied protective coatings, making them easier to maintain and install than in decades past. Cast iron offers seamless integration into any historic elevation when matched carefully to the existing system or surrounding details.
