Updating your Rainwater Systems

Heavy rainfall is not uncommon in the UK and here at Total Pipeline Systems we can help you to protect your property throughout the worst downpours of the seasons, so be sure to check out our rainwater systems!

Carrying out regular maintenance will not only allow you to prolong the lifespan of your products, you’ll also have the opportunity to prevent any further damage. We provide drainage pipes, guttering and fittings and downpipes.


If you’re looking to update your rainwater systems, there are several factors that you need to take into consideration, including the following:

Choosing suitable guttering.
As an important part of the rainwater system, the gutter is used to catch rainwater as soon as it drains off the roof. In periods of intense rainfall, your gutter can become overwhelmed- leading to leakages- hence why it’s so important you update it!

Once the rainwater has been collected, it’s drained towards downpipes, away from your home. Any guttering you have fitted to your property needs to be sufficient; make sure your gutter is big enough to withstand heavy downpours.

You’ll need to take the time to check your guttering systems and downpipes to ensure that they are in perfect working condition.

Feeding rainwater to downpipes.
When it comes to feeding rainwater directly into the downpipes, you need to make sure that gutters and gullies are installed correctly.

The purpose of the rainwater system is to remove rainwater from your property, quickly and easily. As well as this, they’re considered to be useful for preventing any nasty smells and blockages in pipes!

Any rainwater system can become blocked with leaves, hence why it’s so important you regularly clean your downpipes, gutters and gullies.

Maintaining rainwater systems.
Make sure that your rainwater systems are well-maintained; not only will this enable you to prolong the lifespan of your equipment, it will enable you to receive the best value for money.

Our PVCU gutters are low maintenance and more affordable than other gutters and downpipes, manufactured from cast iron and aluminium.

By regularly cleaning your system, you can prevent any blockages, ultimately ensuring that it functions efficiently.
