Zinc plated coach screws in packs of 10.
The coach screw is a heavy-duty zinc-plated wood screw used to fix cast iron downpipe strap brackets and holderbats to timber — typically to rafter feet, roof boarding, timber-framed walls, or wooden soffits where a standard masonry fixing is not available or appropriate. The coarse thread and hexagonal head of the coach screw provide high pull-out resistance in timber and allow the fixing to be driven and tightened with a spanner or socket wrench rather than a screwdriver.
Supplied in packs of 10. Zinc-plated for outdoor corrosion resistance. Appropriate for use with cast iron downpipe brackets on period buildings where timber construction is the available fixing substrate. For specification support, call 0333 987 4452.

Yes. Decorative cast iron and brass ventilation grilles of this pattern were widely used in Victorian and Edwardian buildings, and like-for-like replacements are generally accepted by conservation officers for listed building works. We can provide product specifications and material details to support listed building consent applications if required.
Prices for standard cast iron hopper heads are shown on the product page. For larger quantities, bespoke sizing, heritage colour finishes, or full rainwater system specifications, please call 0333 987 4452 or use the contact form.

A corner hopper head collects rainwater from two gutters running at right angles and channels it into a single downpipe. They are typically required at internal roof valleys, on hipped roofs, and wherever two runs of gutter converge at a corner. The Regent H1A is designed specifically for this application and is sized to suit the most common gutter profiles.
The School Board Airbrick is suited to Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing, mid-century school buildings, civic halls, public baths, and converted institutional buildings. Its plain square-grid face matches the utilitarian aesthetic of late-Victorian construction and is also appropriate for new heritage-style builds in conservation areas.
Yes. The Louvre Airbrick is dimensioned to standard brick course openings and is suitable for direct replacement of worn, broken, or missing original cast iron louvre grilles. If you are unsure of the size required, measure the opening in the brickwork rather than the existing damaged grille.
Available in two sizes: 225mm x 82mm (single airbrick course height) and 225mm x 150mm (double course height). Both sizes fit standard brick coursing positions and install flush into the wall face.
We do offer a range of Ogee patterned gutters in both straight and radius profiles. The straight profiles are much more common and as such cost less.
The standards for our cast iron gutters and pipes have remained remarkably constant for many years. The physical properties of cast iron are sustained throughout its lifetime thus maintaining its effectiveness. Coupled with is durability and proper maintenance, we would expect our traditional cast iron rainwater products to last for over 50 years under normal conditions.
The Antique Black finish is cast iron with a blackened surface — the most historically accurate finish for cast iron ironwork and the most appropriate for the majority of heritage applications. Polished Lacquered is cast iron with a bright polished surface sealed with clear lacquer, suited to interiors and sheltered locations where polished ironwork is the specification. Polished Brass is solid polished brass throughout — the correct choice where existing building fittings are in brass or where a warm metal tone is required.
