Condition grade 6/10 (B-grade). Assessed by the seller at listing; figures below relate to this specific lot of 480 tiles · 2 pallets.

About this lot

Surplus to a housing development. Recycled-slate composite with built-in interlock. Full guarantee transfer. Located in Leeds — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Direct from Leeds Urban Reclamation, a demolition operating out of Leeds; live for 24 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.

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

Collection & delivery

  • Buyer collection in Leeds; kerbside hand-load or forklift by arrangement.
  • Regional pallet delivery can be arranged from £80 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?+

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 7% 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.
