Next Working Day Delivery (order by 11:30am)
Zinc hoppers are one of those components that are easy to overlook - that's until you need one that actually looks right on the building. We supply a carefully selected range of zinc hoppers designed to work seamlessly with zinc guttering and downpipes, both visually and practically.
Choose from natural zinc hoppers or quartz zinc hoppers, available in box-style designs for clean, modern elevations or fluted hopper styles for more traditional and heritage properties. All options are designed to integrate neatly into a complete zinc rainwater system, not just bolt on as an afterthought.
Most popular sizes and finishes are available with next working day delivery (order by 11:30am, subject to stock).
Natural Zinc vs Quartz Zinc Hoppers
If you’re deciding between finishes, it usually comes down to timing and appearance.
Natural zinc hoppers start bright and metallic, then weather gradually to a soft grey patina. They’re a great choice if you’re happy for the building to age naturally over time.
Quartz zinc hoppers arrive pre-weathered, giving a darker, consistent finish from day one. These are often chosen for contemporary builds or projects where the rest of the zinc already has an aged appearance.
Both options offer the same long-term performance and longevity — it’s purely an aesthetic decision.
