About this product
Dover Black slate is a heavy texture, non-weathering, unfading stone with a level of quartz that provides a glistening sheen. It is the only product approved as an alternate for Buckingham Slate on historic restorations by the National Park Service, Virginia Department of Historic Resources, and Historic Arlington Landmark Review Board. Features: One of the most appealing features of Buckingham slate is its low absorption level, which is a great indicator of longevity. Comparably, our slate boasts the low water absorption rate of 0.14%, which is well below the average of many American slate products. Ranked in weather resistance, absorption and modules of rupture. If the roof happens to outlive the building, these slate tiles can be easily removed and transferred to another structure. Uses: Considering its long life and handsome appearance, Buckingham slate tile has been a popular choice on both new, high-end residential homes as well as historic restoration projects. Whether it be for residential, commercial, or hospitality purposes, the enduring strength and charm of natural Dover Black slate tile is certain to add the perfect touch to any upcoming project.
