Tile Roof Construction

• Tile roofing is available in clay, concrete and even rubber. Clay or concrete tiles will last a long time, give a modern, clean look and come in a variety of colors and styles.
• Concrete and clay roof tile manufacturers can produce tiles to suit any architectural style, from authentic Spanish and Mediterranean to New England Colonial, historic, or contemporary. Tiles can be flat or round and made to simulate wood shakes or even centuries-old roofing materials.
• Concrete and clay tile roofs are fire retardant and have long life spans.
• Tile roofing installation is much more difficult than traditional shingle roofs.
• Hi-Tek Rubber which comes from scrap tires, looks like slate and lasts like slate. It’s fire-tested and requires little maintenance. Rubber tiles are flexible, can be trimmed with a utility knife and installed in any weather conditions.

Tile Roof Cost

• Both clay and concrete tiles are more expensive than most other roof materials. However, a life span of more than 50 years may justify the extra initial cost.
• Clay and concrete is very heavy and your roof may need extra support, possibly adding to construction costs.
• Installation is labor intensive — about 3 times the cost of a standard shingle job.
• Although durable and long lasting, tiles are susceptible to breakage and more costly to repair.
• Hi-Tek Rubber roofs are impact resistant, so homeowners in hail-prone areas may qualify for reduced insurance premiums with a rubber roof.
• According to one distributor, rubber roofs are about three times the cost of asphalt, but compare favorably with cedar shingles and are about one-third less expensive than slate.

Tile Roof Care

• Tiles are practically maintenance free.
• However, clay roofing tile is fragile and can break easily. It’s a good idea to call on a professional roofer for installation and tile roof repairs.
• Concrete roofing tile is very durable although it has also been known to break, as well as experience some curling.
• Both clay and concrete tiles may experience varying degrees of color softening after extended exposure to the elements. However, this occurs to a lesser degree with roof tile than with most other roofing materials. Some clay roof tile manufacturers guarantee their tiles against fading for 50 years.
