Choosing from our roofing materials range

  • Breathable membranesUnderlays that keep wind-driven rain out but let vapour escape.
  • Natural and fibre-cement slatesSlate for new roofs and repairs, with hooks or nails.
  • Concrete interlocking tilesEconomical tiles in many profiles and colours; low pitches possible with some profiles.
  • Clay tilesPlain and pantile clay tiles for traditional roofs and matching.
  • Ridge, hip and verge systemsDry-fix and mortar-bedded options, with vents and fixings.

How much will you need?

An 18 m² roof slope needs roughly 180 large-format interlocking tiles, or about 1,080 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.

Things to check before you order

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.

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.

In Scotland most building work needs a building warrant from the local authority, assessed against the Building Standards Technical Handbooks.

Planning the drop in Auchterarder

Tiles and slates arrive palletised and are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; battens and membrane rolls travel with them. Auchterarder is inside our standard mainland delivery area.

  • If the site is up a shared drive or behind other houses, tell us the distance from the road.
  • Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
  • On busy streets in Auchterarder, a parking suspension or a quiet time slot can make offloading safer, so tell us about local restrictions you know of.

Roofing Materials in Auchterarder: questions

What is dry-fix ridge?

A mechanical system that fixes ridge and hip tiles without mortar, which avoids mortar cracking and is now common on new roofs.

Do you supply flat roof materials?

Yes, felt, EPDM rubber and GRP fibreglass systems for smaller roofs. Tell us the roof size and what is underneath.

Can you deliver roofing materials to a site with restricted access in Auchterarder?

Usually, yes. Tell us about the access when you ask for a price and we will plan the vehicle and offload, or say if a smaller vehicle is needed.

Can I add other materials to my Auchterarder delivery?

Yes. Put everything on one list, from roofing materials to fixings and PPE, and we will price it as one delivery where the products can travel together.
