Reproduction Random Diminishing Westmorland Green Slate & Welsh Slate
Their Reproduction Random Diminishing Westmorland Green Slate & Welsh Slate are approved by the Lake District National Park Authority and act as an alternative to Westmorland Green Slate and Welsh Grey Slate, where demand has overtaken supply, causing an increase in costs and a decrease in availability.
Greys Roofing Products recognised that there would be a demand to provide a readily available, genuine alternative that not only provides a cost saving of around 75% against the natural product, but also replicates the random diminishing course roofscape the Westmorland slate deserves.

Their construction allows them to be cut easily without cracking or breaking, and they look like slate when cut. The lightweight construction of the slates saves on labour and timber costs, equating to savings of approximately 33%.

Reproduction Heritage Conservation Roofing Slate
With the increasing expense and limited availability of natural Cotswold stone roofing slates, Greys Roofing Products have created a genuine alternative with the Cotsway range of reproduction stone roofing slates, which match the versatility and beauty of real stone.
Cotsway slates create a truly diminishing stone slate roof with a vast range of varying sizes. These reproduction stone slates are true to the original in terms of colour, texture and performance.
