Custom Sourcing of Rare Colours & Sizes
When it is not in the yard, we go and find it. We buy standing roofs, salvage lots and estate stock across the country.
A standing network
We are in weekly contact with demolition contractors, roofing crews, salvage yards and estate managers from Louisiana to New England. When a slate roof comes off a church in Missouri or a school in Pennsylvania, we usually hear about it before it is on the ground. That network is how rare colours—deep purple, mottled green, oversized 24" stock—actually become available.
What we source
Rare colours
Purple, mottled green with purple, red and unfading variegated ranges.
Oversized stock
24" and larger, graduated lots, and unusually thick quarry runs.
Specific quarries
Buckingham, Peach Bottom, Vermont, Pennsylvania and Virginia origins.
Clay profiles
Discontinued interlocks, shaped-butt flat tile, decorative ridge and finials.
Lead times and honesty
Custom sourcing is not a catalogue order. A common colour in a common size can turn in two to four weeks. A rare colour at volume can take a season, and sometimes it does not come at all. We will tell you which of those you are dealing with before you build it into a schedule.
