The Potting Shed restaurant pub in Langley is the latest refurbishment project to benefit from Infinity – the high-performance steel rainwater system from Alumasc Rainwater.

A member of the ‘Elite Pubs Club’, the traditional building is set in the stunning Kentish countryside. The project involved replacing existing gutters and downpipes and also fitting new ones on an extension, built to accommodate a new seating area with open bar and theatre kitchen.

The contractor opted for steel because of its innate strength and durability, and because of the versatility of Infinity steel rainwater to suit traditional and contemporary buildings. Steel will not crack or corrode, requires little maintenance and resists thermal expansion; and Infinity’s 15-year product warranty ensures long-term peace of mind for specifiers and property owners.

Infinity steel is also lightweight and easy to install. A dry joint system removes the need for additional silicone sealant, and the gutter lengths and angles are jointed with EPDM rubber sealed connectors for fast and watertight installation.

While the cool look of plain galvanised steel was the preferred choice for The Potting Shed, Infinity is also in the new robust colour coated system, three layers of protection including a polyester powder coated top coat. Black and anthracite grey available ex stock through to Moss Green, Copper Brown, Dusty Grey and other additional colours available to order.

Alumasc Rainwater National Sales Manager Pete Wainer says: “We’ve noticed a rising demand for steel rainwater in recent months as specifiers, contractors and property owners realise the benefits of a metal system. Steel gutters and downpipes are durable, stylish and easy to install. And at a comparable price to plastic, it’s a win-win all round.”
