About this lot

Even patina, mortar removed. Match well with reclaimed plain and pantile roofs. Located in Cardiff — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Offered by Cardiff Urban Reclamation (demolition) from their Cardiff yard, listed 24 days ago.

Site over-orders, cancelled jobs and careful strip-outs are where the best material bargains in the UK come from — this lot is one of them. It is graded down on appearance alone; structurally and functionally it performs as A-grade.

Condition report & known defects

6/10
  • Allow a cutting/waste margin of ~10% over a normal A-grade order.
  • Cosmetic seconds — graded down for appearance, not performance.

Carbon & sustainability notes

This listing carries no CO₂-saved figure because the material is new; the sustainability win here is waste prevention — first-quality stock staying out of the waste stream entirely.

Reuse is the single fastest way to cut a build's embodied carbon — substitution beats offsetting every time.

Collection & delivery

  • Buyer collection in Cardiff; car/van accessible, assistance with loading provided.
  • Regional pallet delivery can be arranged from £35 depending on postcode and lead time.
  • Inspection before purchase is encouraged — bring a tape and check sample units against the measurements above.

Typical applications

  • Vertical tile hanging and cladding
  • Re-roofing period properties with matching weathered coverings
  • Extensions where new tiles would jar against an existing roof
  • Conservation-area and listed-building work

Questions about this lot

How do I know reclaimed slates are sound?+

Cardiff Urban Reclamation ring-tests on lifting — a sharp tap on a sound slate rings true, a dull thud means delamination. Spot-check your own sample on collection in Cardiff.

How many spares should I order?+

Allow 5% over your measured roof area for cutting, breakage and future repairs — with reclaimed stock the future-repair argument is the strongest.

Can these be delivered to a scaffold?+

Delivery is kerbside by default; loading to scaffold height needs a hiab or telehandler agreed with the seller in advance.
