Tile Roofing

Tiled roofs are beautiful and durable. Traditionally, most roofing tiles were made from slate or a fired clay or terracotta product. Today’s tiles are made of multiple materials like concrete, clay, slate, metal, or composite and come in shades of red, brown, or gray

Tile roofing is a great choice for roofs that experience hot weather or exposure to salt air. While they are expensive and heavy, they can be last up to 100 years.

Types of Tile Roofs


  • Clay: Though more expensive than an asphalt roofing system, clay tiles last much longer, offsetting the installation cost.

  • Concrete: Concrete tiles typically don't last as long as clay tiles but cost less and weigh less.

  • Slate: While costly, slate tiles come in various colors and styles to match any home style, from medieval to contemporary European.

  • Metal: Metal roofs come in different types of metal like copper, aluminum, zinc, and steel.

  • Composite: Made of polyethylene, composite tiles look like traditional clay or concrete tiles but are less prone to breakage.

  • Solar: Photovoltaic tiles are mini solar panels that resemble classic tiles but produce some electricity for the home.
  • A tile roof can last over 100 years, especially when installed in the right climate. Clay and concrete tile roofs have been known to withstand hail, high winds, and even fire. Most manufacturers offer warranties, some up to 50 years or more. Tile is considered to be a sustainable roofing material. They are made from earth minerals, not synthetic materials, and they can be pulverized and recycled when they are removed. The heavy thermal mass of tiles can help to regulate indoor temperatures, which can help with energy costs.
