Ogee Guttering

Ogee guttering is a traditional style, high capacity profile manufactured to BSEN12200 with a 20-year performance and 10-year colour* guarantee from FloPlast. Ogee gutter is a popular choice for those looking for something a little different. With its excellent carrying capacity and choice of square or round downpipe systems, it combines the aesthetics of metal guttering with all the benefits of maintenance-free PVC.

BENEFITS OF OGEE GUTTERS

Most developers and homeowners think of ogee guttering as a decorative system, without realising that it also has another big benefit – it has a high capacity and flow rate. FloPlast ogee guttering actually has one of the highest carrying capacities of any domestic gutters available in the UK.

HIGH CAPACITY OGEE GUTTERS

FloPlast ogee guttering capacity varies between 2.4 litres per second (fixed level with the outlet at one end) and 5.3 litres per second (fixed at 1:350 with a central outlet). We appreciate that these stats can be baffling to all but the scientists and architects, but what this means is that the gutter can hold approximately two and half times as much water as our half-round system and more even than our deep flow guttering - and as such it can cope with the heaviest flow of rainfall from any large or particularly steep pitched domestic roofs.

CORNERS AND STOP ENDS FOR OGEE GUTTERS

Because ogee gutter is not symmetrical, it is important to understand that stop ends are either left or right-handed (a right-hand stop end is fitted at the right-hand end of a length of guttering when viewed from the front). Similarly, you should remember that gutter angles can be either internal or external (the best way to understand the difference is to look at both product images).

CONCEALED BRACKETS FOR OGEE GUTTERS

Ogee guttering also features an optional top hung UPVC fascia bracket. This cleverly designed bracket fits over the top of the gutter and locates inside a small lip on the top inside edge of the gutter profile, removing the need for traditional bottom supported fascia brackets – ideal on a conservatory where you would like to see clean, unspoilt lines. These top hung brackets are currently available in Black, White and Brown.

CONNECTING OGEE TO OTHER GUTTERING SYSTEMS

As Floplast's ogee is a unique design, it is not possible to interchange or connect with other manufacturers' Ogee systems.

OGEE GUTTER INSTALLATION GUIDE

Due to the shaped contour of the gutter seals, FloPlast recommend that all fittings are sprayed with lubricant prior to insertion of the gutters, This keeps the seals clean prevents them from catching as the gutter expands and contracts through the joint.

The carrying capacity of any gutter system is determined not only by its size, but also by the position of the rainwater downpipes in relation to the gutter and the fall to which it is laid. All gutter systems can actually be fixed level, although we would recommend that a fall of 1:600 is incorporated (this equates to approximately 1 inch in 50 feet, or 2.5cm in 15 metres in metric terms).

If we are unable to deliver your order within the above timeframe for any reason, we will contact you to arrange an alternative delivery day. We use overnight carriers, so we are unable to arrange or confirm an exact time of delivery.

Some special or non-stocked items on our website have extended lead-times, which are displayed on the product pages in question – see below for more details.

Whilst every reasonable effort shall be made to keep to a delivery date, we cannot be held liable for any losses, costs, damages, or expenses arising directly or indirectly out of any failure to meet any estimated delivery date.

In the unlikely event of a late delivery, we will be unable to compensate you for any consequential loss, so please do not organise any plant or labour before you have received your materials.

DELIVERY CHARGES AND EXTENDED LEAD TIMES

Orders over £250 excluding VAT will be delivered free of charge. Orders under this amount will incur a charge of £15.00 + VAT. This applies to most stocked items and some items that are supplied directly from manufacturers. Orders of stocked items are generally delivered in 1-3 working days.

Some stocked items will incur a bulky or pallet charge due to their extreme weights or lengths:

Bulky items - £45.00 + VAT charge placed on orders that contain one or more bulky products. These items will be marked as bulky during the checkout process.
Palletised items - £60.00 + VAT charge placed on orders that contain one or more items that need to be sent and delivered via a pallet. These items will be marked as palletised during the checkout process.

A full list of stocked items can be found here.

Certain items, usually those sent direct from manufacturers, incur additional delivery charges and an extended lead time regardless of the order value, due to the restrictions placed upon us by our carrier and the extreme weights/lengths. These charges are applied instead of the standard £15.00 + VAT charge if the order is valued under £250 excluding VAT.

The following product ranges have extended lead times or incur additional delivery charges. Please click on each individual range for specific details.

Certain direct suppliers are able to ship outside of these areas depending on product quantity and availability. Please get in touch with us regarding any such queries.

SPLIT DELIVERIES

If you have ordered a mixture of goods that come both from us and direct from our manufacturing partners, you will be advised of this in your dispatch email. As the order is coming from two locations, you will receive two different deliveries. Delivery on direct items can have extended lead times and will need someone present to check and sign for the goods.

Occasionally, we don't have all items in stock at our main warehouse. If this is the case, we will endeavour to send the stock the same day from one of our other branches, in order to not delay delivery of the complete order. This may lead to a split delivery, dependant on the courier being used. We will contact you if there is going to be a delay due to this.

LABOUR AND MACHINERY

Please do not book machinery or labour until your goods have been received and checked over. Whilst every effort is made by our couriers to deliver your parcel within the stated timeframe, Professional Building Supplies cannot be held responsible for any additional costs incurred by delays outside of our control.

CHECKING AND SIGNING FOR ORDERS

SIGNED FOR POLICY – T&CS

All orders should be signed for. If you are unable to sign for your delivery, you can arrange with us for a neighbour to take delivery of your order. You can also advise us of a safe place where your order can be left, although we cannot take responsibility for any shortages or obvious damages.

Please ensure that you always check the number of packages that you are signing for. If there is an incorrect number of packages or any package appears damaged, you should note this on the signature panel and advise us so that we can rectify the issue as quickly as possible. Once goods have been signed for as being received ‘complete and in good condition’, any claims are not covered by the carrier’s insurance company.

Signing for goods as ‘unchecked’ makes any claims inadmissible, so please check the number of packages and look for any signs of any damage, noting any issues on the signature panel. Although the delivery drivers are busy, they are contractually obliged to wait whilst you check your delivery.

WHAT IF I CAN’T WAIT IN ALL DAY?

There is a ‘Notes’ section of the Basket review page where you can request for your goods to be left in a safe location – just tell us where to leave the order. Please not that we cannot take responsibility for any shortages or obvious damages if goods have not been signed for.

Please note that deliveries made by DHL (these are generally small orders with no pipe or bulky products) cannot be left in a safe location. You will be advised which carrier will be delivering your order by email at the point of dispatch.
