Tile Roofing in Tampa metro

Clay and concrete tile, and the underlayment that actually keeps water out.

Tile outlasts what is underneath it, and Tampa metro.

At a glance

  • The tile is not what keeps water out. The underlayment is.
  • Most tile jobs are a lift and relay, reusing the tile over new underlayment.
  • Walking a tile roof breaks tile. Keep people off it.
  • Broken tiles are cheap. The water that gets past them is not.

Common questions

How long does a tile roof last

The tile can last fifty years or more. The underlayment underneath usually needs replacing long before the tile does.

Can I walk on my tile roof

Better not to. Tile breaks under foot and the breaks are not always obvious afterwards.
