HERITAGE CRAFTS ASSOCIATION
As a testament to our craftsmanship, we are proud members of the Heritage Crafts Association, recognised for our traditional coppersmithing skills, an art that has been placed on the Red List of Endangered Crafts. With fewer skilled artisans remaining in this field, we are dedicated to preserving and refining these heritage techniques, ensuring that each handcrafted copper product meets the highest standards of quality and durability.
By passing down these skills and investing in specialist training, we are committed to keeping the craft alive for future generations, maintaining the legacy of British coppersmithing while integrating modern innovations for longevity and performance.
Metal Gutta and the Good Directions Group of Companies carry the Made in Britain accreditation with pride. Our commitment to supporting British businesses shines through as we manufacture most of our products in-house, sourcing raw materials and third-party services from carefully selected local suppliers or within Britain whenever feasible.
Beyond our borders, we proudly export our goods worldwide, each bearing the official Made in Britain trademark a testament to our dedication to quality craftsmanship and British manufacturing excellence.

NOT ALL JOBS ARE STRAIGHTFORWARD
Buildings come in all shapes and sizes, and many feature curves where standard gutters simply won’t fit. While not all jobs are straightforward, we can manufacture and supply a bespoke guttering solution to ensure a neat and seamless installation.
Our expert team produces segmented radius gutters by precisely mitre-cutting smaller sections, which are then TIG welded or soldered together in lengths of up to 2.4m, ensuring durability and a perfect fit.
We can create segmented curved guttering using ‘as-built’ drawings or a card or timber template taken directly from the building, guaranteeing a tailored solution for every project.
OTHER PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
In addition to our standard metal guttering, rainwater products and decorative items, we also produce copper ridges and flashings to provide that extra finishing touch and help prevent moss growth. All of our flashings and sills, valleys, ridges, and gutters can be made from the same copper, zinc and stainless steel, used in our guttering ranges. The copper in particular offers a material life expectancy exceeding 100 years. Once installed, the copper oxidizes, producing copper sulphate, a natural fungicide effective in inhibiting moss formation.
Through our parent company the Good Directions Group of Companies, we offer a large range of copper finials and weathervanes, or can create bespoke designs to order, adding a unique and elegant feature to your building.
