I am in the process of planning a new double garage (7.5m x 6.1m) which is to have a hipped slated roof. At the moment I am putting together some prices and not sure which sized slates I should use for putting together a rough price. Can anybody provide advise on the size of slate I should price up? The architects plans specify blue slate so most likely will be using welsh slates to tie in with the house.
Depends on your preference: Empress, Princess, Duchess ... all the way down to Narrow Lady! If you don't want trouble from "she who knows better", I would avoid, Broad Countess, Wide Lady and Broad Lady!
