If you’re looking for spectacular aesthetics for your next roofing project, tile roofing is a great option. Not only are tile roofs beautiful to look at, they are also considerably lighter and more long lasting than traditional shingle roofs, which means once it’s installed, you have a near-lifetime roof that won’t cause headaches in the future. Consider the following when deciding if a tile roof is right for your home:

• Tile roofs are great for durability, many last even 50 and 60 years if taken care of correctly
• Tile is naturally resistant to sun damage
• Tile doesn’t provide food for bugs so insect damage isn’t a concern
• Tile is superior for its rot-resistance as water cannot damage it
• Clay, sand and composite tile offer a range of options of varying weights
• Tiles come in an array of shapes and colors, even resembling wood
• Tile roofs are best in temperate climates, including our location in Maryland

Tile roofing that is made from clay or concrete will require roofing reinforcement from a trusted roofer company to make sure the house or building can withstand the added weight of the tiles. Do keep in mind that tile roofs requires a professional roofer for maintenance to ensure you don’t put weight on the tiles by walking on them and inevitably shattering them.
