A London home has added a pop of colour by adding some hot pink rainwater products from specialist firm Guttercrest.

A single section of hot pink has enhanced the rear of the newly renovated property. The colourful hopper, piping, foot piece and coordinating clips sit on a modern kitchen extension.

The ‘unapologetic splashes of colour’ were intended to make something utilitarian stand out as a little ‘featurette’ on the property. The colour which looks magnificent against both the brick work and the nearby green foliage, was chosen in response to a splash of green paint that is in the opposite corner of the garden.

Guttercrest regularly accept orders for bespoke shapes, sizes and colours, but it’s the first time hot pink RAL4010 has been used on the firm’s range of aluminium rainwater products.

Glen Beech, technical sales at Guttercrest says: “Pink guttering isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but we pride ourselves on being able to produce something completely bespoke, even on a standard guttering product and for those that have the vision and the confidence to go for it, it can look brilliant as it does in this case. Who knows, it might catch on, but I can’t say it will be added to the standard colour range just yet though.”
