CPDs & system demonstrations

As part of its specification support service, Sharmans provide a CPD seminar for gutter refurbishment in the commercial and industrial sectors, detailing the main reasons why gutters fail and introducing the associated key design considerations in any refurbishment programme.

Our CPD “Why gutters fail and the options to repair, replace and refurbish: A specifier’s guide” is interactive in its design; the programme explores the common causes of gutter failure and the options available to repair, replace or refurbish, and finishes with a practical gutter network demonstration using a purpose made rig.

In addition to this, we offer system demonstrations at our purpose built training centres – one at our Derbyshire head office and one at our Wiltshire facility. These demos use bespoke life-sized rigs with a range of typical gutter complexities to promote hands-on practical appreciation of the reasons why gutters leak and the remedial actions available. We offer specifiers and contractors a comprehensive introduction into the Plygene Gutterline system and its key design features at our fully modernised training centres. This includes participatory fixing demonstrations using specially designed rigs, our comprehensive range of support services and a full manufacturing tour (head office only).

We have CPD Standards Office accreditation status which means that our CPD is recognised by 1600 professional bodies, including RICS.
