Hi Fellas,

Starting a job on thursday and the client wants the walls building in what he calls "west midland/milland slate" anyone got a clue what this is, and where i can buy it?

I can find welsh slate but not any of what he wants which is a lighter blue colour.

Cheers

I've never heard of that slate. I know that there are a couple of companies with names that begin with Midlands Slate but cant help any further than that. have you got a sample?
