Tile roofing for homes built to last generations
A premium roofing solution for discerning homeowners, clay and concrete tile systems combine timeless elegance with exceptional weather resistance. Tile roofing regulates interior temperatures, reduces energy consumption, and delivers an unmatched lifespan.
Why most roofers won't touch tile
General shingle crews break more tiles than they fix, because walking a tile roof wrong cracks it underfoot, and matching a discontinued profile takes sourcing work most shops won't do. So the owner of a $60,000 roof with one small leak keeps hearing "we don't do tile." We do: correct walk paths, matched or salvaged tiles, and repairs sized to the problem. Small tile jobs are welcome here.
The leak is almost never the tile
Clay tile lasts 50 to 100 years and its color is fired in, so Texas UV can't fade it. Concrete runs 30 to 50. But the underlayment beneath them wears out in 20 to 40 years, and that's usually what failed when a tile roof leaks. The fix is specific: lift the tiles in the affected area, install new underlayment, reset the same tiles. The roof keeps its look and most of its parts.
Hail and tile
Quality tile is impact-tested under FM 4473, the ice-ball standard for rigid materials, and concrete tile takes Central Texas golf-ball hail well. Very large stones can crack individual tiles, clay more readily than concrete, but cracked tiles swap out one at a time without disturbing the rest of the roof. Hail on tile usually means spot repairs, and it's a poor reason to be sold a full replacement.
One cracked tile or a stain under a valley? That's a repair, and we take those jobs.

Almost never. Tile roof leaks usually come from the underlayment beneath the tiles, which wears out in 20 to 40 years while the tiles themselves last 50 or more. The repair is to lift the tiles in the failed area, install new underlayment, and reset the original tiles, so the roof keeps its look and most of its parts.

- Clay lasts 50 to 100 years, color fired in, no UV fade
- Concrete runs 30 to 50 years
