Slate Prices

windyboy

Hi,

I haven't asked for a full quote yet so not sure on delivery I doubt it would be more than €100, I believe the VAT rate in north is 15%.

Selfbuildache, where are you based, I got a price of €1.55 incl Vat for Tegral Trutone at the weekend in Carlow, whoever quoted €1.63 is having a laugh tbh

Hi Villain,

Not sure if you can post the name of the company here but if not, can you PM the details of the company in Carlow you got this from?

Cheers

Hi,

Hi Villain,
Same as Voodoo, will you post the name here of the Thrutone supplier? (Posting of names allowed in this forum.) That's some difference!

muffler

Yes names are allowed providing there is no connection between the poster and the firm involved.

Lambert Hardware
The Green Hacketstown Co. Carlow
(059)6471401

I have no connection other than they gave me the best price for my Garage roof. A mate said another local hardware shop quoted him the same but can't confirm yet.

If you buy them from him though let me know I might try and beat him down a bit for referring

Ringing around today, Tegral Trutone €1.54 inc VAT from Heiton Buckley in Carlow and Chadwicks Naas.

Capco Berona Xtra €1.37 inc VAT from Coogan's in Tinahely

Best value NATURAL SLATE?
We've priced the Capco Nova Black at €1.76 incld VAT (300x600)
Can anyone advise on similar 'looking' slates that might have a better price?
(We really want a natural slate but are getting pushed towards manafactured by price difference.)

As to the manafactured prices, we now have:
Thrutone Plus at €1.53 incld VAT
Thrutone Supercem @ €1.27 incl VAT
both at Brooks, Galway. (300x600)

Tegral Rivendale @ €2.01 incl VAT (300x600) Buckleys, Galway

Looking for a price on:

Franvisa heavies "FV 20 R" natural spanish slate 24x12

These are a nice slate, thick with nice rough edges, they look good on the roof and I want them!

Anyone seen better than 2.19 + Vat?

selfbuildache

Hi Riccs,
Haven't used any yet as we're just pricing for now. That's not a good sign though. I hope you get sorted.

windyboy

Hi,

Has anyone got better value for these slates or similar from other suppliers?

Forna Prime 20x10 €1.49
Vigo 7mm 20x10 €1.27

Quack13

Anyone have any prices for Tegral Natural slates recently?

In particular Villar del Ray.

clint_eastman

Just wondering what is the most cost effective way of sourcing roof tiles/slates? For example, should I be contacting the likes of Tegral/Capco/Quinn directly or am I better off to go to the various builders providers? I haven't decided on a type yet, hopefully natural but it will come down to costs differential and whether or not I feel natural looking manufactured slates would look the part.

windyboy

Hi,

I was thinking of going for Capco Nova Black Brazillian slates 20x10. What are the best prices people have been getting for them?

Soldsold,
Where did you get that price?
Have to agree, the Franvisas are one of the nicest I've seen. Had nearly ruled them out on cost. I was being quoted €2.80+.

Sorry I dont remember as I got 24x12 brazilian slates for 1.35+vat and can put up with a couple of cracked slates, will be using hooks so dont expect too many to break after the first 18 months or so.

I think it was a Capco rep I got the franvisa quote from though but I'm not 100% sure, not even 90%.

I didnt record the supplier of the franvisa as I decided they were too much for me.

They are a very nice slate though.

Sorry!

Might be a bit late but got quoted €1.36 for Forna 20x10 in Ennis.
Has anyone any experinces with the Fornas?

KingPuck

Saw one price in here for Rivendale @ 1.65 +. Has anyone seen better prices for this slate?

I quite like the rivendale but can anyone recommend any alternatives in the same look/ price category?

jingojonson

Quoted for Tegral Rivendale 1.40 plus vat for 600x300 (24x12).
Think it was chadwicks

solas2

Quoted 1.08 euros + Vat, for spanish Celtas slate from slateNI (i.e. in Northern ireland). Received sample of same when visited by company rep'. This price would include delivery and a 50 year guarantee. It appears to be a lovely black thin slate, don't know how brittle?
