Quality, function and appearance were all major factors when it came to choosing the right Rainwater goods to renovate Wayout Lodge, a listed property, which has recently undergone a major transformation by owner and interior designer James Gostelow.
Existing plastic drainpipes were replaced with Yeoman Rainguard XL Aluminium pipes and gutters. Being durable and cost effective, the Aluminium system also boasts strong aesthetics – just a few of the reasons James selected it for his own project. “In my eyes aluminium guttering was the most cost effective way of achieving a solid material and a great look,” he said. “It's so important to choose a quality material and stay in keeping with the age of the property.”
Dating back to 1830, James knew that the hopper design was something that was hugely important. “I wanted a design which would fit in with the era of the lodge and give that dramatic effect. The Yeoman Rainguard Victoria GRP Hopper was able to fit the bill exactly.”
“Working with Yeoman Rainguard certainly proved their worth and I had expert advice to succeed in what I had set out to achieve, which was a rainwater product that would serve its purpose, look good and do away with the hideous plastic drainage system,” said James.
