Thank you for reading our newsletter. We hope it’s informative and worthwhile. If you know anyone in our business or even a homeowner, please don’t keep it a secret and share.

Renaissance has been providing reclaimed roofing products for over 40 years and has one of the largest tile and slate “bone yards” in North America. Read more about our history here.

With significant volume of tile and slate surplus in our facility, we would like to take an opportunity to place some of these profiles in the spotlight in an effort to potentially clear up some yard space. Our ultimate goal is to reclaim roofing systems throughout North America and supply those products to our clients for a reasonable price and lead time.

LUDOWICI NORMAN

We just completed a full repack and inventory of this historic Ludowici 15” x 7” Norman tile with pitted surface texture. This profile is perhaps of the most desirable in North America. It’s simple yet truly unique character with slight bows and warps in some of the tiles and the rough surface texture makes it a perfect classic European look and feel.

We have several semi-loads available right now – at a very reasonable price. Act fast as this tile doesn't "hang around" very long.

BUCKINGHAM SLATE

We have available 1 of 2 semi-loads of this absolutely beautiful 20 x 12 x 1/4-3/8" reclaimed Buckingham Slate originally quarried in Arvonia, VA.

Many of my clients know the difficulty of obtaining this material in nearly any quantity since the quarry ceased producing roofing slate in October, 2024. Read more about it on their website here.

Supply is very low and demand is extremely high! First come, first serve for this slate! Act quickly if you have a need for this slate.

NEW NATURAL ROCK SLATE

Renaissance has a great rapport with most major quarries throughout North American and overseas. Annually, we provide thousands of squares of new S1 roof slates to our clients and parent company, Renaissance Historic Exteriors.

We offer all common colors and blends and wide in a range of sizes and thicknesses.

HONEY OF A DEAL!

Several years ago, I bought this Spanish tile, believing it was a standard Ludowici 13-1/4” Spanish.

Well, I was wrong. I’m not certain of the producer of this tile but am confident it’s grade 1 and has a lot of life left.

It measures 13” x 9-3/4” overall and has a tighter barrel and wider pan than a Ludowici Spanish. I have 35sqs. of this tile along with about 400 of the eave closures.

Your cost is LESS THAN $300/SQS. First come and first serve – and only selling the entire lot (tile and eaves).

LUDOSLATE FOR DAYS!

I have well over 100sqs. of leftover new Ludowici LudoSlate in stock. So much so that I stopped buying it. Of the colors, I have over 50sqs. of a black/gray/black mix which also includes the 1/3 and 2/3 Premier.

Other colors include Antiqued Montpelier Green, Earth Gray, Slate Gray/Montpelier Green blend, Hawaiian Gold, Slate Red, Golden Cedar, Forest Green (any where from 5 to 15sqs. each).

Call or email me today if you have any needs for this tile.

BARK, BARK, BARK TILE!

Over the past 6 months, I have strengthened my massive supply of bark surfaced Ludowici interlocking tiles. Some of these groups are left over Ludowici 14" x 9" Americana and other groups are the much older, Ludowici 13-1/4" x 8-3/4” Early American Old Type (EAOT).

We have literally dozens of pallets available of various color blends (mostly greens and grays). All have a nice bark emulated surface texture, and all are in fantastic condition.

This tile is a great option for a lightweight tile with a very desirable rustic surface texture.

Let me know if I can send you samples, more photos, or you need a quote.
