Condition grade 10/10 (End of line). Assessed by the seller at listing; figures below relate to this specific lot of 60 ridges.

About this lot

Even patina, mortar removed. Match well with reclaimed plain and pantile roofs. Located in Nottingham — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Listed 23 days ago by Nottingham Site Clearance Ltd, a demolition based in Nottingham.

Every lot here was once destined for waste transfer — listing it instead keeps first-quality material in circulation at well below merchant list. End-of-line means first quality with no re-order — quantity certainty matters more than usual, so check coverage twice.

Condition report & known defects

10/10
  • No re-order possible: buy the full quantity you need from this lot.
  • Surplus from a discontinued profile — flashings and fittings included where stated.

Carbon & sustainability notes

No reuse CO₂ credit is claimed on this lot: it is unused stock, so the embodied carbon was committed at manufacture. Buying it still prevents waste — material sent to landfill or energy recovery delivers none of its embodied value.

With Part Z and embodied-carbon reporting moving up the agenda, documented reuse like this is increasingly worth recording in your project's carbon log.

Collection & delivery

  • Collection from the seller's Nottingham premises — car/van accessible, assistance with loading provided.
  • Nationwide pallet courier available — typically £70–£95 per pallet, 2–4 working days.
  • Viewings welcomed by appointment; the measurements table above reflects what was checked at listing.

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

How to buy, collect and install this lot

  1. 1Confirm your requirement against the measurements above — bring a tape and the 60 ridges figure when you visit Nottingham Site Clearance Ltd in Nottingham.
  2. 2Reserve the lot in writing with a deposit; get the batch/reference (L0368) and condition grade (10/10) on the receipt.
  3. 3Arrange transport: kerbside hand-load or forklift by arrangement. Confirm access at your delivery address (width, overhead clearance, forklift or hand-ball).
  4. 4On arrival, check the count against the 60 ridges stated and photograph any transit damage before signing the delivery note.
  5. 5Store correctly on site — for roofing, that means dry, level and off the ground; keep original packaging on until the day of use where possible.
  6. 6Dry-lay or trial-fit a small sample first to confirm roofing performs as expected in your specific application before committing the whole lot.
  7. 7Log the reuse for your project records: photograph the seller invoice, capture the ~0 kg CO₂e figure and save this listing URL in your embodied-carbon file.

Pre-purchase checklist

  • Measure twice — confirm 60 ridges covers your net requirement plus a 10% waste/cutting allowance.
  • View in person or request a video walkround from Nottingham Site Clearance Ltd; do not rely on the hero photograph alone.
  • Check condition against the 10/10 grade above — ask which specific defects apply to the units you'll actually receive.
  • Confirm the batch or shade reference (L0368) so what you inspect is what you collect.
  • Agree collection or delivery cost in writing — pallet, hiab, flatbed or hand-ball each price very differently.
  • Verify VAT position: is the £250/lot figure ex-VAT or inclusive? Trade sellers default to ex-VAT.
  • Ask about returns or replacements if the delivered quantity falls short — reputable demolitions stand behind the stated count.
  • Screenshot this listing (title, price, condition, CO₂ figure) as your negotiation baseline — surplus prices drift as lots age.
  • Check compatibility if you're matching existing material (brick blend, tile shade, timber section) with a physical sample first.
  • Book collection or delivery within your reservation window — end of line lots at this price rarely sit for long.

Price in context

  • At £250/lot, this lot sits roughly 51% below current UK merchant list for equivalent new material — the typical spread for end of line roofing.
  • Delivered-to-door pricing (including pallet freight within ~57 miles of Nottingham) tends to add £70–£125 to the headline figure; collection stays as advertised.
  • Comparable end of line lots in the surplus roofing materials category have moved on SurplusBuilder within 4 days of listing — well-priced surplus doesn't linger.

Sustainability deep-dive

The headline saving on this listing (waste avoidance) is benchmarked against quarrying or firing new roof coverings (natural slate ~13 kg CO₂e/m², concrete tile ~18 kg CO₂e/m²). That's the embodied-carbon figure — the emissions locked into new material at the point of manufacture, before it ever reaches your site.

In UK building terms, embodied carbon typically accounts for 40–60% of a project's whole-life emissions once operational energy is decarbonised. Reusing roofing like this lot from Nottingham bypasses the manufacturing stage entirely, which is why substitution consistently outperforms offsetting on lifecycle assessments.

For projects tracking against Part Z (the proposed embodied-carbon amendment to the Building Regulations), BREEAM Mat 01 credits, or the RIBA 2030 Climate Challenge, reused material counts at zero embodied carbon in the A1–A3 modules. Keep the seller invoice, this listing URL and the CO₂e figure together in your carbon file.

Beyond carbon: buying this lot from Nottingham Site Clearance Ltd keeps first-quality roofing out of the UK construction waste stream (currently ~62 million tonnes/year, per DEFRA). It supports the circular-economy supply chain — sellers who divert stock only continue diverting when there's a viable resale route.

Questions about this lot

How do I know reclaimed slates are sound?+

Nottingham Site Clearance Ltd 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 Nottingham.

How many spares should I order?+

Allow 10% 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.

What payment and paperwork should I expect from Nottingham Site Clearance Ltd?+

Nottingham Site Clearance Ltd issues a VAT invoice on collection or dispatch — bank transfer is standard, card on request. For anything over £500 we recommend a written spec confirmation before paying, so the exact roofing description and quantity are on record.

Can I reserve this lot while I organise transport from Nottingham?+

A short reservation (typically 48–72 hours) is usually possible with a 10% holding deposit. Surplus stock moves quickly, especially end of line lots at this price point — confirm the hold in writing so the seller doesn't re-list.

Is this suitable for a Part L / Part Z reporting project?+

The material itself carries the same certifications as merchant stock; document the reuse route in your carbon log even without a specific CO₂e figure — waste avoidance still counts under Part Z reporting guidance.
