ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to the construction of a gutter 10 for the draining of fluid, where a portion of the gutter is formed from continuous lengths of polymeric strip-like material 11. The strip like material comprises a continuously extruded thin strip of polymeric material 11 which is sufficiently resilient to allow flexing of the strip 11 about its longitudinal axis to form a substantially U shaped cross-section along its length. A plurality of brackets 18 are provided for holding a length of the flexed strip 11. The brackets 18 secure the gutter 10 to a structure and comprise a first portion 20 for securing the bracket 18 to a structure, a recess 23 for location of the flexed strip 11 therein and means 26, 27 for securing the flexed strip 11 within the recess of the bracket 18. The invention provides a convenient means of installing continuous lengths of gutter to a roof while minimizing material wastage and construction time.
