Most Bristol sellers hold stock inside BS3, BS5 and BS8 and offer same-day van across BS postcodes £90–£140. For loads over a tonne of ridge tiles, a hiab drop is usually more economical than multiple van runs.

Frequently asked questions

+Does surplus ridge tiles count for PAS 2035?

Yes when spec and certification are preserved. Keep batch numbers and BBA certificates with your evidence pack.

+Can I use dry-fix on reclaimed ridges?

Yes if the ridge is in good condition and the profile matches system tolerances.

+Can I use surplus on ECO4-funded work?

Yes — ECO4 assessors care about spec and installation quality, not new-vs-surplus provenance.
