All my slate are stacked with the 'faces' all the same direction as well as the bottoms all to one side. When ever I grab a hand full and take them up on the roof, I don't have to flip & turn & rotate. It kills me to see slate piled vertically. You know how much 'capillary action' there is stacked that way. And after it rains and you grab a handfull, your legs get about 10 gal. of water dumped on them.   Old_school (Old_school) Senior Member Username: Old_school Post Number: 455 Registered: 01-2009 Posted on Tuesday, May 04, 2010 - 09:17 pm:        At least you stacked them right.   Blue_sky_roofing (Blue_sky_roofing) New member Username: Blue_sky_roofing Post Number: 5 Registered: 05-2010 Posted on Tuesday, May 04, 2010 - 05:00 pm:          Blue_sky_roofing (Blue_sky_roofing) New member Username: Blue_sky_roofing Post Number: 4 Registered: 05-2010 Posted on Monday, May 03, 2010 - 09:58 pm:        They are 9 x 16, and are gray in color (I suppose they are techniquely called 'black'). One of my kids will have to do the 'pic' thing (My computer skills only go so far - lol) I believe that they were originally installed in 1986. We removed them in 2005 due to a remodeling / addition project as the homeowner wanted the entire roof the same material (Certainteed's Carriage house shingles = $$$$$).   Epl (Epl) Senior Member Username: Epl Post Number: 80 Registered: 06-2009 Posted on Monday, May 03, 2010 - 09:49 am:        Dale, Please send me a photo as I may be interested.

At least that is what it is like here in Michigan. If someone has a need for them they would be good on a roof. I don't. Good luck!   Blue_sky_roofing (Blue_sky_roofing) New member Username: Blue_sky_roofing Post Number: 2 Registered: 05-2010 Posted on Sunday, May 02, 2010 - 10:16 pm:        I've got approx. 10 sq of them (used), and they do contain 15% asbestos (had then tested). Are they worth resaleing? -or are they 'dumpster material'?
