Rainguard Aluminium – The Perfect Match
for Grade II Listed Church
Needing to replace an old cast
iron rainwater system, Hatherlow
Church’s list of “must haves” was not
a small one.
Elder of the Church, Mat Simpson
explained “Hatherlow Church is
a grade II listed building, and as
such we were looking for a system
that would be in keeping with the
mid - 19th century building, as well
as matching existing gutters and
downpipes already installed.
The product would also have to cope
with the vast amount of water that
flows from the pitched roof when it
rains.
“Being budget conscious, we also
required the lowest cost possible,
for an aesthetically pleasing, long
lasting and highly functional system.
Yeoman Rainguard managed to tick
all the boxes.”
To accommodate the large water flow
levels from the pitched roof, 130 x 100
mm Deep Flow XL Aluminium Gutters
were installed to the front side of the
Church.
These were complemented with the
addition of 100mm dia. XL Aluminium
Downpipes, sufficiently wide enough
to cope with the amount of water
captured in the deep flow gutters.
The installation, carried out by
Yeoman Rainguard’s team, was
completed with attractive Bellvue
cast aluminium rainwater hoppers to
either side of the Church’s porched
entrance.
All of Yeoman Rainguard’s XL
Aluminium products have a durable
powder coated finish which not only
looks stylish but offers 30 years plus
maintenance free service.
