Did you know there are around 16,500 care homes across the UK, with approximately 70% providing residential care and 30% offering nursing care? Just under 441,000 people live in these care homes, with the majority based in England.
Providing key services for varying needs, such as learning disabilities, dementia and end-of-life care, this sector is integral for many. The people living, working and visiting these homes deserve a building free from leaks, damp and water damage. That’s where our Aluminium Guttering for Care Homes comes in.
According to Care England, in some areas, new care homes are replacing older buildings rather than expanding overall capacity. For example, recent developments include:
Embracing modern architecture and accessible layouts, care homes like these need a contemporary rainwater drainage system to match. Our Seamless Aluminium Guttering is just the right solution.
Manufactured using premium aluminium, independently tested and approved by the British Board of Agrément (BBA), our seamless range is built to last. Not only can this be seen in the quality of aluminium used, but it can also be seen in the configuration.
With no joints, seams or sections in the running length of the gutter, you can rest assured that your new care home building will be protected against leaks from day one.
Other key advantages include:
While new developments are happening constantly, much of England’s existing care home estate was built decades ago.
Care England notes the difficulties of refurbishing older care home buildings. But if it’s a viable option for you, we have a wide range of more traditional gutter profiles that give the same modern performance as our seamless option, just with a classic aesthetic instead.
We offer a wide range of moulded, ogee aluminium guttering for care home buildings, including:
Turning to more modern care home buildings, our Box-Profiled Aluminium Guttering is a strong choice for contemporary designs.
True to its name, this range has a clean, square or rectangular profile and a high flow capacity, which makes it well suited to larger purpose-built care homes with wide, flat roof areas.
Offering a timeless aesthetic appeal, our Deep Flow gutter profiles suit a wide range of care homes – making them a good fit for older buildings that likely need gutter replacement, as well as newer ones that simply need a modern gutter system in place to keep things running smoothly.
What really sets this range apart is its name – it has a deep flow capacity. For care homes based in listed buildings or conservation areas, this profile reproduces the look of authentic cast iron gutters without the added weight or regular maintenance.
Not to mention the beading along both top edges, which enhances the standard half round profile, making both systems able to handle large, care home-sized volumes of water.
Guttering isn’t the only rainwater product we offer, we also provide a wide variety of bespoke Architectural Aluminium for care homes. This includes:
