๐ง Steel or PVC spouting: what's the difference?
It's one of the most common questions we get.
PVC is cheaper up front but it can go brittle in the sun over time, and it comes in set lengths, so there's a join every few metres. Joins are where most leaks start.
Continuous pre-painted steel spouting is formed on site by your local team, in one continuous length along each run. No joins along the run means nothing there to fail.
