The BMI Redland Rosemary Clay Classic Eaves Top Tile is expertly crafted from premium Etruria Marl clay, renowned for its exceptional strength and longevity. This tile is specifically designed to provide a clean and secure finish at the eaves and top course of pitched roofs. Not only does it enhance the aesthetic appearance of the roofline, but it also contributes to overall performance by offering a weather-tight seal where it's needed most.
Available in a wide range of weathered, brindled, and single colours, this tile is ideal for blending into traditional roofscapes or adding depth and character to more contemporary properties. Whether you’re restoring a period home or working on a new build, the Rosemary Classic range delivers a consistent and attractive finish while honouring the rich heritage of British roofing styles.
Each tile is carefully manufactured to high standards, offering precise dimensions for consistent installation. The tile measures 215mm in length, 165mm in width, and has a thickness and height of 13mm, with a hanging length of 204mm. These measurements ensure it integrates seamlessly with standard plain clay tiles, especially in areas where a reduced-height tile is required to complete the course properly.
This tile is suitable for roof pitches between 35° and 90°, making it highly adaptable for a variety of pitched roof designs. To ensure secure fixing and proper drainage, the batten gauge ranges from 88mm to 115mm, depending on the pitch. Headlap specifications range from 65mm to 88mm, which helps protect against water ingress in exposed areas. The recommended batten size is 38mm x 25mm, and for secure fixing, 40 x 2.65mm aluminium alloy nails are suggested. At maximum gauge, you can expect to use approximately 10.0 metres of battens per square metre.
In terms of handling and logistics, the tiles are packaged efficiently for ease of storage and transportation. Each pack contains 14 tiles, with 60 packs per pallet, totalling 1,120 tiles per pallet. Each tile weighs approximately 1.023kg, contributing to a total pallet weight of 1,456kg, making it manageable for both site storage and transportation to rooftop level.
The Rosemary Clay Classic Eaves Top Tile meets the latest industry standards, being fully CE marked and compliant with the BS EN 1304:2013 harmonised standard for clay roofing tiles. It is also referenced under Uniclass code Pr_25_93_72_13, making it easy to specify in architectural plans and roofing schedules.
Whether you're looking to complete a roof edge with subtle elegance or require a reliable tile for high-performance roofing, the BMI Redland Rosemary Clay Classic Eaves Top Tile provides a perfect balance of aesthetic charm, craftsmanship, and functional excellence. It’s a small detail that makes a big difference in delivering a polished and long-lasting roofing finish.
