Manufactured from a natural sedimentary stone, this Brazilian natural slate is routinely tested to meet BS EN 12326-1 for roofing slate.

Question:
Hi how many tiles do I need for 76 m2 at 500x250 and also do you do a slate and a half for this size Cheers Dsrren
Answer:
The quantity of tiles needed can vary depending on the specifics of your roof, but as a rough guide, you would typically need around 22 tiles per square meter for a tile size of 500mm x 250mm. Therefore, for a 76 m2 area, you might need approximately 1,672 tiles. However, this estimate does not account for potential wastage or for unique roof features such as valleys or hips, so it's always good to order a bit extra. In terms of a slate and a half, yes, we do have an option for that. The tile and a half size for this range would be the 500mm x 375mm tile.
