Learn moreIn a pallet of 900, these 267mm x 168mm Plain Concrete Tiles from Marley feature traditional single-camber designs that add classic charm to any roof. With versatility extending beyond the roof surface, these tiles are available in different colour options and are suitable for dormers, eyebrows, conical roofs, and vertical cladding.
As a substitute for clay and slate, Marley's concrete roof tiles have appearances reminiscent of natural materials, with colours the same as clay. These low-maintenance tiles are suited to use in extreme climates with fire-resistant properties, and their cost-effectiveness stems from an efficient manufacturing process.
You can fix these tiles using the recommended 38mm x 2.65mm tile nails with a net roof covering capacity of 60 tiles per m² at a 100mm gauge and 53 tiles per m² at a 115mm gauge. For optimal performance, these tiles are suited to a minimum roof headlap of 65mm, a minimum vertical headlap of 37.5mm, a maximum roof gauge of 100mm and a maximum vertical gauge of 115mm. The approximate weight of the tiling is 73.8kg/m² (0.72kN/m²) at a 100mm gauge (roof) and 58kg/m² (0.57kN/m²) at a 115mm gauge (vertical).
Per net roof, you will need 10.0 linear metres of battens per m² at a 100mm gauge, or 8.7 linear metres per m² at a 115mm gauge per net vertical. For rafters/supports that do not exceed 600mm centres, 50mm x 25mm battens (fixed to BS 5534) are recommended.
Question:
If I installed Your Morley concrete plain tile on a pitch of 25dg c. What would happen?
Answer:
The Marley Concrete Plain Tile has a minimum recommended roof pitch of 35°.
At 25°, the tiles would be installed 10° below the manufacturer's minimum pitch, so Marley would not recommend or warrant the installation.
The main risk is wind-driven rain and water ingress, as the headlap and tile design are not intended to shed water effectively at that shallow a pitch. This can lead to leaks, particularly during severe weather.
Question:
how to set out battens for tile hanging with eaves tiles top and bottom.
Answer:
For tile hanging installation, including setting out battens for eaves tiles top and bottom, it's important to follow manufacturer instructions. These usually include guidelines on batten spacing, which depends on the tile profile and the roof pitch. The Marley Plain Concrete Roof Tile Old English Dark Red product you're considering comes with a minimum pitch of 35 degrees and a maximum pitch of 90 degrees. However, specific guidelines for batten setting for this tile are not provided here. We would recommend referring to Marley's installation guides for the most accurate information. You can find some useful resources in our brochure. If you can't find the information you need, it might be best to contact Marley directly or speak to a roofing professional. They will be able to provide the most accurate advice based on your specific project requirements.
