Rosalba
and I have been rather lucky as we have found about 87 m² of used slate
tiles.
Last weekend I went to pick them up with our 1 tonne ute and a trailer.
I have to say that I seriously underestimated the weight of the slate tiles and I had to take it slowly up the Blackall range (at times I only managed second gear).
I even managed to 'break' the trailer just before unloading by driving over a sharp stone in the driveway and flattening one tyre.
The 87 m² of slate didn't even all fit in the ute and trailer. I reckon I managed about 70-75% of the slate in the first trip. I'll be picking up the rest of the slate tiles this Friday and luckily will be able to fit them in the ute only and won't need the trailer.
We'll use the slate tiles on the floor in the kitchen, dining, lounge, and the bathrooms.
Has anyone used slate tiles in the bathroom before and is there anything that you need to be mindful of?
