Steel downpipes play a vital role in the home, guiding water away from the foundations to combat dampness and avoid serious damage.
To ensure that your drainage system runs efficiently, it is essential to use adequate downpipes made with resilient and long-lasting material.
Steel downpipes are the perfect choice for domestic and commercial buildings as they boast incredible strength, making them remarkably resistant to deformation or cracking throughout their lifetime.
Steel Superstore is your one-stop destination for all your steel downpipe and guttering needs. We stock 87mm round and 100mm round steel downpipes and all components of the Scandic Rainwater System by Roofart.
What can happen to a house with no rainwater drainage system?
Gutters and downpipes carry rainwater, and sometimes snow and ice, from the roof of your property.
Roof drainage systems are essential to ensure that the water from your roof does not accumulate around your house.
Without it, excess runoff can make its way into your home's foundation and cause extensive damage in time. By channelling all this water away from the property, downpipes protect your property against expensive repairs.
Why choose steel downpipes?
Downpipes are a necessity for any home or business. You need to be able to get rid of water after it leaves your home or business, and downpipes are the best way to make sure that happens.
There are numerous benefits to using quality downpipes for your gutters. Some of these benefits include:
Reduced water damage to the house and garden
A clogged gutter is one of the most common problems, which can be avoided by installing downpipes for gutters.
Rainwater pipes allow water to flow freely from the roof to the ground without causing any issues with the flow of water. It also reduces the risk of overflow during heavy rains.
Steel downpipes look stunning
As well as protecting your home, steel downpipes look stunning and give a sophisticated finish to any property.
Our round steel downpipes are available in a galvanised steel finish or a range of gorgeous colours, making them an ideal choice for seamlessly matching the rest of your home.

What to look for in downpipes
If you're looking to buy metal downpipes, there are some factors you need to consider. These are:
Downpipe material
One of the most important things to consider when buying downpipes is the material that they are made from. Different materials are used for this purpose, including steel, copper and plastic.
Each material has advantages and disadvantages, but it is usually best to go with one that is durable, easy to install and affordable.
Finding the right size downpipes
Another important thing to look at when buying downpipes is their size.
You'll want them to be large enough to handle all the water flowing through them at once without overflowing or getting clogged up with debris along the way.
87mm round steel downpipes form part of the 125/87mm steel rainwater system and suit most small and medium-sized UK homes.
Larger 100mm round steel downpipes are part of the 150/100mm steel guttering system and are suitable for commercial properties are homes with a large roof area.
Price
Another thing that makes people buy poor-quality downpipes is that they have no idea what they should pay, or they want to save money by buying cheap plastic gutters and downpipes instead of investing in a metal guttering system designed to last decades.
However, if you are looking for a good quality drainpipe and don't mind paying extra money, go ahead and invest in metal; it will save you money in the long run! The Roofart system is priced as a competitive alternative to similar products and offers superb value for money.
