About this lot

Genuine Penrhyn Welsh slates, hand-sorted, holes still good. Perfect for matching repairs. Located in Liverpool — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Direct from Liverpool Urban Reclamation, a demolition operating out of Liverpool; live for 12 days.

This is exactly the kind of material that typically ends up in a skip costing the seller money; buying it diverts it back into a build. It is graded down on appearance alone; structurally and functionally it performs as A-grade.

Condition report & known defects

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

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.

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

  • Buyer collection in Liverpool; car/van accessible, assistance with loading provided.
  • Nationwide pallet courier available — typically £50–£75 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

Questions about this lot

How do I know reclaimed slates are sound?+

Liverpool 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 Liverpool.

How many spares should I order?+

Allow 11% 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.
