Find out moreDurable and tough, this Brazilian natural slate roof tile is available in different dimensions. A satisfying and understated mixture of grey and green in colour, it maintains attractive and traditional finishes while being long-lasting and versatile.
Selected and produced at quality deposits in Papagaois, Brazil, this slate is a natural material with virtually no unstable minerals, such as carbon and graphite, that could potentially hinder the structure and impede the expected lifespan. Brazilian natural slate roof tiles are for long-term use and, when installed with the correct methods and guidelines, can even outlive the building.
Having been manufactured with a natural sedimentary stone, this Brazilian natural slate is routinely tested to meet BS EN 12326-1 for roofing slate. Impervious to the damaging effects of UV light and sunlight and with a commendable resistance to acid rain, these roof tiles are not only pleasing to the eye but are fantastically resilient and reliable.

Question:
How many of these slates will I need for 24 m²? It is for the front of a house and not a roof
Answer:
To calculate the number of tiles you'll need, you'd typically need to know the dimensions of the area, the size of the slate, and the overlap of the slates. However, as a general guideline, for our Roofing Superstore Natural Brazilian First Quality Slate Roof Tile in Grey/Green - 400mm x 200mm, you'd need approximately 22 tiles per square meter. For a 24 m² area, you'd need roughly 528 tiles (24 m² * 22 tiles). Please note this is an estimate and the actual number may vary depending on the specifics of your project, such as the amount of overlap you plan to use. You can find more detailed information about this slate, including its specifications and installation guidelines, in the product's Data Sheet and Other Certification documents. We recommend reviewing these before making your final calculations and purchasing. If you need further help, feel free to contact our customer service.
