A tile roof is a roof made from clay, ceramic, concrete, or slate tiles. Each tile is secured to the roof deck by nails. Just like asphalt shingles, a tile roof is completed by starting at the bottom or lowermost part of the roof, securing a row of tiles, then overlapping the next or second row of tiles over the first.
Tile roofing is well worth the long-term investment because it gives you many years of protection. Some tile roofing materials can last 100 years or more when installed properly. When you compare the cost of installing tile as opposed to roofing materials that have to be replaced more frequently, you may realize that tile is a bit less expensive in the long run.
Tile roofing is also fire resistant, which means that your home will be a bit more protected from fire and you could see benefits in the form of discounts on your homeowners’ insurance. Tile holds up very well to many weather elements including hail and heavy winds, so it will require less maintenance and fewer repairs when compared to other roofing products. If damage is incurred, it is very inexpensive to repair.
There are basically two materials used to create roofing tiles. Clay is popular and is used in many Spanish-type homes. Clay tiles are a great choice for homes that have different architectural designs and are durable enough to withstand extreme temperatures, rains, and heavy wind
Concrete is another material used to create roofing tiles and concrete tiles offer their own benefits. They are also very weather resistant and are affordable. They can be matched to any existing home exterior and are very diverse with regard to the selection of styles, designs, and colors.
