TILE ROOFING

We install all types of tile roofs:

Clay, Concrete, and Slate.

The most popular choice in the Southeastern United States, where weather conditions are extreme and severe, tile roofs offer classic beauty and unmatched durability. They are made from all-natural materials and offer spectacular variations in color and style. No two tiles look the same.

While tile roofs are associated with a distinct Spanish or Mediterranean look, their visual possibilities are limitless. Tiles come in a wide variety of colors, shapes, and sizes. They can be the traditional reddish orange but can also be created in earth tones, vivid blues, purples, and even white, which helps reduce cooling costs. Colored tiles can also be blended. Their shapes vary from flat, round, and wood-shake to replications of centuries-old roofing tiles.

The architectural styles of tile are just as varied. Tile roofs blend with and enhance authentic Spanish and Mediterranean, New England Colonial, historic, and contemporary styles.

TILE ROOF BENEFITS

DURABILITY
Tile outlasts most other roofing materials, with a longevity of 50 to 100 years or more. Manufacturers commonly offer warranties of 50 to 75 years on tile roofs, which can be expected to outlive the buildings on which they are installed. Tile is the primary roofing material used throughout Europe, where many tile roofs are centuries old and still functional.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
The materials are completely natural and abundant and do not deplete limited natural resources.
No chemical preservatives are used to manufacture tiles. Old tiles can be recycled.
Tile roofs are permanent and therefore do not produce the waste of replacement every 20 to 30 years. If properly installed and maintained, they last a minimum of 50 years.
Slate lasts even longer.

COST-EFFICIENT
The superior thermal capacity along with the ventilated air space created during installation lowers air-conditioning costs, prevents ice accumulation, and insulates better in colder weather, producing more constant interior temperatures.
Most residential and commercial buildings do not require special bracing to support the weight of a tile roof. If bracing is required, the cost is a very small portion of the project cost.
While tile roofs do cost more to install, they last two to three times longer than other roof types, and their costs have not increased as much as the costs of other types of roofs.
The initial cost of a tile roof system can save a customer an estimated 15% in roofing costs over the span of 60 years.

LOW MAINTENANCE
Maintenance of tile roofs is minimal, mostly involving gutters, flashing, and venting. The roof itself requires minimal upkeep.
To insure that the integrity and color of your roof are protected throughout the roof’s long life, however, we recommend that one of our licensed, trained contractors inspect and clean your tile roof once a year to remove built-up organic debris.

TILE ROOF CLEANING

We do not recommend attempting to clean a tile roof yourself because putting pressure in the wrong spot can cause a crack in the tile and the roof becomes dangerously slippery when wet.
