Next question: Slate sills... We are looking at the possibility of using
internal slate sills downstairs in the conversion we are doing, so SWMBO can
place plants etc. on them without marking... Windows are all new and oak, so
we will cut a 25mm or 30mm rebate to take the sill, which will have what's
called a "semi-rubbed" (i.e. slightly buffed matt) finish.

Can anyone recommend a good, reasonably cheap supplier or grey/blue grey
slate for this (the Chinese et.c slates are not appropriate). About 20
windows are involved.


We got ours from:

M.C Slate Ltd
Bow Station, Bow, Crediton, Devon EX17 6HU
Tel: 01363 82598

Get them to price up your order - you'll be surprised at the price.
