Working out quantities for your Accrington job
A 22 m² roof slope needs roughly 220 large-format interlocking tiles, or about 1,320 small plain tiles, before ridge, hip and verge pieces. The exact count comes from the tile's gauge, so send us the roof measurements and pitch and we will work it out with the battens and membrane.
Picking the right product
Check the minimum pitch
Every tile and slate has a minimum rafter pitch set by the manufacturer. A shallow extension roof may rule some tiles out.
Matching an existing roof
The profile, size and colour all matter. A photo of the tile and a measurement of its exposed face help us find the closest current product.
In England, building work is checked against the Approved Documents, for example Part A for structure and Part L for energy efficiency, through your council's building control team or a registered building control approver.

- On busy streets in Accrington, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.
- Clear a level area for pallets, ideally on boards, so materials stay out of standing water.
- With roughly 7h 25m of daylight in Accrington around the shortest day, morning deliveries leave more working light for the job.
