Third Quarter 2015
 
We are already into the 3rd Quarter of 2015 and the Tile and Slate Roofing Industry is in high gear! This year, we have successfully completely roof reclamations and procurements over a dozen states and yielded in upwards of 3,000 squares of exceptional quality tile and slate roofing materials along with tens of thousands of units of trim accessories. As the years pushes on, we are moving at a rapid pace to continue to bring in and subsequently ship out these roofing materials to all of our clients. Should you have any needs for materials, please feel free to contact us at your earliest convenience. 
 
Recently Procured Slate

With reclaimed natural roofing slate being in short supply and high demand, we focused a great deal of time and energy on reclaiming and procuring close to 1,000 squares of materials. The end result is we have on hand many large and small batches of viable Vermont slate as well as slates brought in from Canada, Spain and Virginia. We have multiple colors, lengths, widths and thickness available right now and many more roofing systems becoming available every week.

 

Examples:

  • 150 squares, Vermont 16" - 20" x RW x 1/4"-1", Multi-Colored, graduated slate (pictured above)
  • 50 squares, Vermont 22" x 12" x 1/4", 50% Sea Green, 20% Royal Purple, 15% Gray/ Black, 10% Unfading Green, 5% Red (new)
  • 40 squares, Vermont 18" - 30" x RW x 1/4"-1"+ ,Gray/ Black, graduated slate (new)
  • 20 squares, Vermont 18" - 30" x RW x 1/4"-1"+ ,Semi-weathering Green, graduated slate (new)
  • 45 squares, Vermont 16" x RW x 1/2", 5 color blend (cottage style)
  • 20 squares, Vermont 22" x RW x 1", 4 color blend

These are the most recent procurements. We have many more groups of slate available in nearly every color, size, thickness and quantity. Please respond or call with your inquiries.
 

An Abundance of Clay

A typical season of reclamation and procurement includes many hundreds or thousands of squares of various clay tile roofing systems with a heavy emphasis on Ludowici roofing tiles. This year has been no different and as a matter of fact, we have shipped in even more than the norm in efforts to keep up with the very high demand for these highly sought after roofing tiles and fittings. I have personally traveled half the country securing countless semi-loads of tile and getting involved with the packaging and careful handling to ensure safe transit back to one of our facilities.

 

Examples:

  • 100 squares, Ludowici red/ brown 15" pitted Norman (Flat Slab Shingle Tile)

  • 50 squares, Ludowici red/ Brown Brittany (Flat Slab Shingle Tile)

  • 50 squares, Ludowici dark green Colonial (Flat Slab Shingle Tile)

  • 50 squares, Ludowici gray/ green Colonial (Flat Slab Shingle Tile pictured above)

  • 50 squares, Ludowici red Closed Shingle Old Type (Interlocking Tile)

  • 25 squares, Ludowici matte green Closed Shingle Old Type (Interlocking Tile)

  • 75 squares, Ludowici red/ brown, weathered Light Weight Interlocking (Interlocking Tile)

  • 150 squares, Ludowici red, brown, black Lanai (Interlocking Tile)

  • 50 squares, Ludowici clay red 13-1/4" Spanish (only 20 years old)

  • 75 squares, Ludowici true Fire Flash 13-1/4" Spanish

  • 50 squares, B. Mifflin Hood red/ brown blend Dresden

As with the slate listed above, these are the most recent procurements. We have recently brought in many hundreds or squares of tile from all parts of the United States and don't have the space to list them all. Please respond or call with your inquiries.
 

Have Tile or Slate? Will Travel

This year, unlike the past several, I have made it a point to book my flight and come to you! With understanding the importance of a handshake and face to face conversation, I have been and will be traveling to meet you to discuss your tile and slate roofing materials, projects and both of our business to business relationship potential. My schedule is filling up, but please don’t hesitate to inquire about a visit. I’m excited to meet with you and “talk shop”.

Independent Sales Rep

Renaissance Tile and Slate caters to the entire United States and Canada. We have been solely invested in the tile and slate roofing industry only for three decades and grow exponentially annually. We started with a small stock pile of reclaimed tile and slate roofing with the notion of using these roofing materials for our roofing restorations and repairs and sell off portions from time to time to help those in need. Over the past 15 years, we have developed and maintained a very large inventory of new and reclaimed tile and slate roofing materials (some dating back to the 1800’s). We have one of the largest inventories of historic roofing in the United States and continue to grow that stock weekly. Further, our network of resources is vast and with a little know how and diligence, there’s nothing that can’t be obtained. We field thousands of requests each year for small and large quantities of clay, concrete and slate roofing products and have a very high rate of supply success.
 

Our role is as it always is; reclaim, salvage, procure and return grade 1 tile and slate roofing materials to our facility in Northern, IL. Repack, recount and make ready for shipment. Each and every lot of tile and slate is inspected, culled and verified to be good-sound roofing material that will last for decades to come. We also have great relationships with most manufacturers and quarries for the new material requests. Logistically, we can load LTL (less than truckload) freight as well as full load/ flatbed semi’s. We do all the work for you.
 

If you are in the building materials trade and are interested in expanding your available products for your clients, feel free to drop me a line to further discuss an independent sales scenario.
