A pole winder opener has a fixed-length arm, making it suited to standard rooflight positions with a consistent throw. A telescopic opener has an adjustable shaft, allowing it to accommodate varying rooflight positions and throw requirements. For guidance on which suits your project, call 0333 987 4452.
Traditional Express (TX) is a cast iron push-fit soil system. Socketless pipes are joined with push-fit sockets and couplings using rubber seals, so there is no caulking on site. LCC uses caulked socket-and-spigot joints and a bitumen coating. TX is quicker to install and can be painted; LCC is the closer match to an original Victorian stack. Our Traditional Express vs LCC guide compares the two in detail.

Linseed oil paint is the most appropriate finish for cast iron guttering on listed and historic buildings. It is breathable, flexible, and penetrating — qualities that suit the movement characteristics of cast iron through seasonal temperature changes. Tuscan Foundry Products offers a curated range of heritage linseed oil colours. For modern applications, a high-quality exterior oil-based paint system over a metal primer is also acceptable.
