For homeowners looking for a more sustainable option, reclaimed slate is an excellent choice. Reclaimed slate is salvaged from old buildings and re-used, reducing waste and minimizing the environmental impact of new slate production. Our team is experienced in sorting and grading reclaimed slate to ensure that it meets our high standards for quality and durability.

The cost of slate tiles can vary depending on the size, quality, and quantity required. On average, slate tiles can range from £50 to £200 per square meter, depending on the specific type and quality of slate. However, it's essential to consider the long-term benefits of slate roofing, including its durability and low maintenance requirements, which can save homeowners money in the long run.

Slate tiles are typically available in a range of sizes, including 500x250mm, 600x300mm, and 700x350mm. When calculating the number of tiles required, it's essential to consider wastage, which can range from 10% to 20% depending on the complexity of the roof design and the skill level of the roofer. Our team at A1 Roofing Preston can provide a detailed quote and advise on the best way to minimize wastage and optimize the use of materials.
