Chailey Rehabilitation Centre
Chailey Rehabilitation Centre is an NHS specialist facility that carries out almost unique work in the care and therapy of severely deformed children and young persons.
The existing aluminium composite gutters had failed and the gutters were subsequently treated with a GRP coating which also failed. As a consequence, water had penetrated into the insulated core of the gutter from where it leaked into the highly specialised engineering workshop below where bespoke mobility aids are made to suit patients individual needs.
UNIFOLD® Solution
Unifold was chosen to offer a permanent guaranteed solution.
Due to negative falls, the gutters have historically held ponding water and were served by relatively small outlets positioned at the external end of each gutter run.
The project involved dispensing with the existing outlets, cutting new chutes the full depth of the gutters through the existing stopends which discharges over new hoppers. The hopper outlets were then plumbed into the existing downpipes.
“I have known and worked with Ampteam for a long time and really like not only the quality of Unifold but also the service that they offer. They are always friendly and reliable and should any issues ever arise they are always resolved quickly.”

“ I have been actively involved in a wide number of projects since 2003 installing Unifold gutter lining systems for many Clients . In that time , thousands of metres have been successfully fitted to a wide range of Industrial and commercial buildings including Schools ; all to the complete satisfaction of the Building Owners . Unifold, unlike some inferior flexible linings in the market is a bespoke designed system . For this reason, amongst others , I believe it to be far superior in offering the Clients both value and also long term performance and integrity."
