About this lot

Even weathering, no frost damage. Perfect colour match for inter-war housing. Located in Edinburgh — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Fresh to market — posted 15 days ago by Edinburgh demolition Edinburgh Site Clearance Ltd.

Surplus stock like this exists because projects over-order to avoid downtime — the saving gets passed to you instead of the skip. 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
  • Surplus from a discontinued profile — flashings and fittings included where stated.
  • No re-order possible: buy the full quantity you need from this lot.

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.

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

Collection & delivery

  • Collection from the seller's Edinburgh premises — car/van accessible, assistance with loading provided.
  • Regional pallet delivery can be arranged from £50 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?+

Edinburgh 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 Edinburgh.

How many spares should I order?+

Allow 8% 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.
