About this lot

Surplus to a housing development. Recycled-slate composite with built-in interlock. Full guarantee transfer. Located in Glasgow — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Fresh to market — posted 26 days ago by Glasgow contractor Glasgow Greenfield Contractors.

Surplus stock like this exists because projects over-order to avoid downtime — the saving gets passed to you instead of the skip. As new surplus it is indistinguishable from merchant stock except for the price.

Condition report & known defects

10/10
  • Crated as delivered from the manufacturer; one crate lid re-nailed after inspection.
  • Stored under cover since delivery; no weather exposure.

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 Glasgow premises — kerbside hand-load or forklift by arrangement.
  • Regional pallet delivery can be arranged from £65 depending on postcode and lead time.
  • Inspection before purchase is encouraged — bring a tape and check sample units against the measurements above.

Typical applications

  • Conservation-area and listed-building work
  • Outbuildings, garden rooms and porches
  • Vertical tile hanging and cladding
  • Re-roofing period properties with matching weathered coverings

Questions about this lot

How do I know reclaimed slates are sound?+

Glasgow Greenfield Contractors 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 Glasgow.

How many spares should I order?+

Allow 12% 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.
