Question:
Marley melbourn interlocking reconstituted slate tiles. Is there an alternative that would fit as I require just a few. Some parts of the mortar on the front of house valley need replacing but roofers won’t repair without some roof tiles incase they inadvertently break any during the repair.
Answer:
Unfortunately these are discontinued so we can no longer get hold of them, redland cambrian slates are similar but not exactly the same I am afraid.
Question:
ARE THESE STILL AVAILABLE?
Answer:
This tile is discontinued by the suppliers I am afraid so no longer available.
