Condition grade 6/10 (B-grade). Assessed by the seller at listing; figures below relate to this specific lot of 350 tiles.

About this lot

Removed in good condition from a 1990s extension being re-tiled. Suitable for full-roof or batch repairs. Located in Leeds — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Offered by Leeds Urban Reclamation (demolition) from their Leeds yard, listed 20 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.

If your project tracks embodied carbon (BREEAM, Part Z readiness, or client ESG reporting), keep this listing reference as evidence of avoided emissions.

Collection & delivery

  • Buyer collection in Leeds; pallet truck on site; tail-lift vehicles recommended.
  • Seller can quote hiab or flatbed delivery within ~30 miles of Leeds; from £80.
  • Ask the seller for close-up photos or a video walkround if you can't visit — they expect the request.

Typical applications

  • Re-roofing period properties with matching weathered coverings
  • Extensions where new tiles would jar against an existing roof
  • Conservation-area and listed-building work
  • Outbuildings, garden rooms and porches

Questions about this lot

How do I know reclaimed slates are sound?+

Leeds 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 Leeds.

How many spares should I order?+

Allow 9% 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.
