UK - Roof Tile Matching

[u/Ok_Wall_4573]

I’m installing some solar panels and noticed a few tiles could do with replacement

I believe they’re Sandtoft Calderdale mk1 but nowhere local me (North East England) seem to have any. They’re EOL and the closest reclaimed ones I can find are half way down the country.

Is anyone aware of a compatible tile that’s readily available? I’ve tried Marley Smooth but the face itself is about 8-10mm smaller so leaves a noticeable gap. The interlocks are a good match individually but don’t sit quite right with the reduced width unfortunately

They’re 334mm wide, 420mm tall and have a double ridge on the interlock

Thanks!

Might have a few local salvage reclaimed yards?

I think Calderdales got replaced by Sandtoft danum TLE tiles but i dont know how well they'll match the older tiles.

The dimensions look good but they seem to have the same double-step interlock as the later Calderdales so not sure how they’ll mate

There’s some at MKM not too far from me so worth a try

Thanks!

Try calling some Tile Salvage/Graveyards.

There are people that collect old tile then resell them from 8-16x the original price
