Reproduction grey slate

And Ridge Tiles

Introduction

Reproduction grey slate made from precast concrete add charm and character to any development from new build to listed buildings or proporties in conservation areas.With a rustic texture and individual colouring that can be seen on natural stone slate roofs every reproduction slate is unique.
Every slate is coloured using the highest quality metal oxide pigments and set in moulds taken from casts of natural stone grey slate,to give that really authentic appearance that is colour fast and will weather naturally.
With the benefits of modern day manufacturing techniques and the traditional beauty of stone and at a fraction of the cost

This picture shows Reproduction Slate laid on a new development.This colour was used to give the impression of old slate laid with the underside showing.
This is often done using old stone slate to extend its life.
As you can see from the instalation they can be laid in diminishing coarses.
