Metal Roofing Supplies Box Profile Sheets Fitting Information
Installing Phoenix Steels’ roofing profiles for Manchester is simple and approachable, perfect for DIY enthusiasts or professionals working on projects across Greater Manchester. Secure your box profile sheets, corrugated sheets, or tile effect sheets with high-quality self-drilling screws to ensure a strong hold against the North West’s blustery winds and frequent rains.
For box profiles and tile effect sheets, drive screws firmly through the troughs to create a watertight seal. For 3″ corrugated sheets, place fixings at the peaks for maximum strength. Always position screws on both sides of the lap joint, adding two extra through the central trough for exceptional stability on your Manchester roof or cladding setup.
Complete your installation with our range of accessories—request trims, gutters, and fixings customised to your project. Apply the recommended tightening torque to each fastener to ensure a durable, weatherproof finish that lasts for decades.

Installing Phoenix Steels’ Gutter Systems for Manchester
1. Prep & Verify: Check all components (gutters, downspouts, brackets, fittings) match your order. Mark a 6mm slope per 3m towards downspouts using a chalk line, ensuring alignment with existing drainage.
2. Install Brackets: Position along fascia every 600–900mm, following slope marks. Secure with screws to withstand Manchester’s windy conditions.
3. Fit Gutters: Slide into brackets and fasten with clips or screws. Apply gutter sealant to joints for a leak-proof finish.
4. Add Fittings: Securely attach end caps and outlets. For multi-section gutters, use connectors, riveting or screwing as required.
5. Set Downspouts: Link to outlets using elbows to direct flow. Fix to walls with brackets every 900–1200mm, guiding water away from foundations.
