What Are Half Round Steel Gutters?
Half round steel gutters are one of the most popular guttering profiles in the UK. Their smooth, curved design allows for excellent water flow, while their steel construction ensures strength and longevity. With a life expectancy of up to 60 years, they are a cost-effective upgrade compared to plastic systems.
Available in 125mm and 150mm sizes, our gutters can be paired with matching steel downpipes, fittings and accessories to create a complete rainwater system.
Benefits of Choosing Steel Guttering
Durability & Long Lifespan
Steel gutters are highly resistant to heavy rain, snow, ice and extreme temperatures. Unlike plastic gutters, steel will not warp or crack due to weather changes. With protective zinc-magnesium and bio-renewable coatings, our gutters can last for decades with minimal maintenance.
Eco-Friendly & Sustainable
Steel is one of the world’s most sustainable materials. Being 100% recyclable and endlessly reusable, steel gutters provide an environmentally responsible alternative to plastic. Our coloured range is coated with GreenCoat® paint, containing bio-renewable materials for an even more sustainable choice.
Modern Aesthetic
With a slim, smooth profile and a wide choice of finishes, steel gutters complement both traditional and contemporary architecture. They are available in classic galvanised steel or a range of durable colour coatings.
Ease of installation
Our steel systems' push-fit and click-lock features help professionals save time during installations, making DIY projects more manageable.
Steel Gutter Colour Options
Our coloured steel gutters are coated with a 275g zinc layer and GreenCoat paint for long-lasting protection. Galvanised gutters use a 310g zinc-magnesium coating with natural self-healing properties.

Steel Guttering vs Other Guttering Materials
Steel vs Plastic Gutters
Unlike plastic, steel gutters don’t warp or crack over time. They are also much stronger, making them ideal for areas prone to heavy rainfall or snow loads.
Steel vs Cast Iron Gutters
Cast iron is strong but heavy and harder to install. Steel provides a similar strength with much easier installation and lower maintenance requirements.
