As more homeowners opt to invest in home improvements over moving, due to the rising costs of admin charges and stamp duty, Polypipe has unveiled an eye-catching new rainwater collection that can brighten any property exterior.

With YouGov finding that 63% of homeowners believe that there is more value in home improvement than moving, Polypipe, the UK’s leading manufacturer of plastic piping, rainwater systems and underfloor heating, has launched its Elegance Colour range.

Elegance Colour is the only high quality rainwater guttering system available in 11 vibrant colours across three collections, providing homeowners with the chance to add personality to their address, and to stand out from the crowd with colour and style.

Guttering and downpipes are a feature of a house that can go unnoticed until they fail. Now however, homeowners can choose from a range of distinct hand-applied colours incorporating Anti-Chip Technology, and select either a cast iron or a matte finish.

It is light to carry and easy to install meaning homeowners could soon be adorning their property in colours including Chartwell Green, Brilliant Blue and Pastel Pink. Each system is available in the classic Sovereign and contemporary Square profiles to cope with the level of rainwater a home may be exposed to.

Furthermore, Elegance Colour is manufactured from modern PVCu, is resilient, and will not be weathered by heavy rain or years in the sun. The range also comes with a 10-year guarantee providing buyer peace of mind, while the guttering and downpipes are 100% recyclable, ensuring minimum impact on the environment when they are finally replaced.
