Using reclaimed roof tiles
has two major benefits. The first is that they look much better,
especially on older, period or listed properties when new tiles are
unlikely to enhance the age of the building. The use of reclaimed roof
tiles is also a form of recycling which is great for the environment as
it stops building materials ending up as landfill.
Reclaimed roof tiles often
work out cheaper than new tiles, and if they are of good quality they
should last for hundreds of years.
What are reclaimed roof
tiles?
Reclaimed roof tiles have been salvaged and saved from another property
roof. Whilst they are technically second hand they are usually of high
quality and made from a long lasting material.
