Rainwater Tanks & Water Butts in Exeter

Based in Exeter, we supply premium rainwater harvesting systems, water tanks and decorative water butts to homeowners, gardeners and commercial customers across Devon and the United Kingdom.

Whether you need a compact 120L water butt for a small garden or a 1000L rainwater tank for large-scale water storage, our range provides practical and attractive solutions for collecting and reusing rainwater.

Why Buy a Water Butt?

With water bills continuing to rise and drought restrictions becoming increasingly common, investing in a water butt is one of the smartest ways to reduce your water consumption while maintaining a healthy garden all year round.

A water butt allows you to collect rainwater directly from your roof via your guttering system. This free source of water can then be used for:

🌿

Watering Gardens & Lawns

Keep your garden lush and green using free, chemical-free rainwater instead of metered mains water.

🐟

Filling Ponds & Water Features

Rainwater is naturally soft and chemical-free — ideal for ponds, fish tanks, and ornamental water features.

🚗

Washing Vehicles

Save mains water by using stored rainwater for washing cars, vans, and other vehicles.

🧹

Cleaning Patios & Driveways

Use stored rainwater for pressure washing and outdoor cleaning tasks without running up your water meter.

🏡

Watering Greenhouses & Allotments

Keep your greenhouse and allotment thriving with a dedicated rainwater supply — especially during dry spells.

💰

Reduce Water Bills

By harvesting rainwater, you can significantly reduce your reliance on mains water while lowering your environmental impact.

Water butts are typically smaller (120L-500L), standalone containers designed for garden watering. Water tanks are larger capacity (500L-1000L+), often slimline or column designs that can be linked together for greater storage.
