A quick quantity check
A 55 m² roof slope needs roughly 550 large-format interlocking tiles, or about 3,300 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.
Delivering roofing materials in Shropshire
Tiles and slates arrive palletised and are usually crane-offloaded where access allows; battens and membrane rolls travel with them. Our standard mainland delivery area covers Shropshire.
- Keep cement, plaster and boards dry: have a tarpaulin or a garage space ready before they arrive.
- Weight limits on bridges or private roads near the site matter for larger lorries, so mention any you know of.
- Tell us the best drop point, such as a driveway, front garden or the kerb, and whether a lorry can park close to it.
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.
Your questions answered
What battens should I use?
Roofing battens graded for roofing work, of the size the tile maker and BS 5534 call for, normally treated.
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.
Is there a minimum order for delivery to Shropshire?
There is no fixed minimum. For very small orders we will tell you honestly if the delivery cost outweighs the materials, so you can decide.
How soon can roofing materials be delivered in Shropshire?
We confirm the delivery date when we price your order, before you commit. It depends on the product, the quantity and whether it is a stock line or made to order.
