We hit a blockage with the new garage and workshop - the roof tiles were unavailable, despite having been promised by the supplier. That, naturally, brought things to a temporary halt while matching tiles were sought.
You might think tiles are easy to find, but tiles from different quarries may not be a match. Our supplier was eventually able to find a new source, but the tiles were more expensive. However, given we already had an order in, the original price was honoured.
With not being able to find tiles, it was pointless putting the roofing membrane on, as exposure to weather would degrade it, so no progress was possible until a new source of tiles could be found.
I still find it incredible that Spanish slates are cheaper than Welsh slates, especially as the Spanish slates are subject to Brexit friction.
