Concrete Tile Roofing

Concrete tile roofs deliver decades of life, fire resistance, and a clean Mediterranean or modern look, perfect for many Peninsula homes.

Quality Roofing Since 2002

What Concrete Tile Is

Concrete tiles are made from sand, cement, and water, then color-coated and cured. They're heavier than composition but last decades longer.

Benefits

Fire resistant, energy efficient, very long lifespan, and great looking. Holds up well to Bay Area sun and wind.

When To Choose Concrete Tile

Great for homes with framing rated for the weight, especially Mediterranean, Spanish, or modern designs. Not always a fit for older homes without reinforcement.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does concrete tile roofing last?

Concrete tile roofs typically last 40–50 years with proper installation and basic maintenance. They're one of the most durable roofing materials available and handle the Bay Area's coastal moisture and UV exposure well.

Is concrete tile roofing fire resistant?

Yes. Concrete tile carries a Class A fire rating — the highest available. This is a significant benefit in California, particularly in areas with wildfire risk.

Is my home's structure strong enough for concrete tile?

Concrete tile is heavier than shingles. Before installing, we assess whether your existing framing can support the added weight, and whether any reinforcement is needed. This is a standard part of our evaluation process.

Can individual concrete tiles be replaced?

Yes — one of the advantages of tile roofing is that individual tiles can be replaced without disturbing the whole roof. This makes repairs straightforward as long as matching tiles are available.

How do concrete and clay tile compare?

Concrete tile is heavier and typically more affordable. Clay tile is lighter, slightly more brittle, and considered more premium. Both last 40–50+ years. We install both and can walk you through the tradeoffs for your specific project.
