MOST COMMON TILE ROOF PROBLEMS

All roofing, including tile, is susceptible to the wind, weather, and wear of age.  Some problems are caused by careless walking on the roof or lack of maintenance and result in cracks, missing tiles, or tiles that aren’t seated correctly.

ADVANTAGES OF TILE ROOFS

LONG LASTING – Tile roofing lasts up to 50 years and is considered one of the longest lasting roofing materials!

THE LOOK – Tile roof’s style, color, and shape fits into the colors of the desert and other homes.  It is available in a range of red, orange, and other colors.

SAFETY – Tile roofing is a non flammable roofing material and does not have issues with insect infestations.  This gives home owners a safer and worry free roofing option.

TILE ROOFING CHALLENGES

WEIGHT RATED ROOF – You need a solid roof as the foundation for tile roofing as it is heavier than alternative roofing materials.  It lasts longer but it does weight more and part of getting tile roofing is ensuring that the roof structure will support the weight.  A structural engineer can help design reinforcements to add any additional strength the roof will need to support your new tile roof. With tile roofing lasting about twice as long as other roofing options it is a great long term cost effective roofing option.  If you’re interested in switching to tile but aren’t sure your roof will support it, talk to our professional roofing team.

COST OF TILE ROOFS

Choose tile roofing and invest in your property’s value and durability.  Tile outlasts other roofing options such as shingles or shake roofing so you won’t have to worry about having new roofing put on any time soon.

With the additional durability your tile roofing will also need less maintenance and minor repairs.  This translates into additional savings when considering the cost of owning various types of roofing.

MAINTENANCE ON TILE ROOFS

Tile roofing is incredibly durable, yet the layer between it and your roof wears out quicker.  The layer under your tile is called underlayment and many times other roofers use the cheapest paper like underlayment available.  This means while your tile might last 50 years your underlayment might only last 8 to 20 and needs to be replaced.  We offer repair service to replace this underlayment and protect your home’s value.
