Who do I know if my tile toof needs repair?

Signs that tile roofing needs repair include cracked/damaged/missing tiles, signs of water damage, or leaks during rain. Call us for a free roof evaluation if you spot these signs.

Can I replace just a few roof tiles?

It’s possible to replace a few roof tiles, but it depends on the state of your underlayment or roof deck. We can inspect your roof and provide you with the best option.

Can I reuse roof tiles that are still in good shape?

Yes, and this approach can save money while maintaining a preferred aesthetic. However, proper removal, storage, and reinstallation requires skilled professionals to ensure that tiles are not broken during the process. This is especially important if replacement tiles/color are no longer available or difficult to find.

Can I repair a leak on my tile roof if I have solar panels?

Yes! You can repair a tile roof with solar panels, but if the damage is beneath the solar panels, they must be temporarily removed and reinstalled by a professional after the repairs are completed. As Arizona’s leading solar-savvy roofers, we understand the unique challenges of working around and underneath solar panels. Whether you’re preparing for solar or need a roof repair, we’re the team to call.

When to Replace Your Tile Roof

Tile roofs are known for their long lifespan, but like any roofing system, they’ll eventually need to be replaced. If you notice any of these signs, don’t hesitate to contact our team to assess whether a full replacement is necessary.

Ageing Roof Tiles

Tile roofs are built to last 50+ years. If your roof is approaching – or past – this expected lifespan, it may be time for replacement.

Ageing Underlayment

While many tiles can last 50+ years or more if properly maintained, the underlayment—usually made of felt, synthetic materials, or rubberized asphalt—has a lifespan from 20 to 30 years, depending on quality and local climate conditions.

Signs of Wear

If you notice any visible cracks, missing tiles, or chipped edges, it may signal the need for repair or replacement.

Constant Repairs

Tile roofs are known for being low-maintenance, so if you find yourself making constant repairs it may be worth replacing it entirely.

Arizona Tile Roofing Underlayment Replacement

On most tile roofs, the underlayment beneath the roof tiles will wear out before the tiles themselves, leading to leaks, moisture buildup, and reduced insulation. Depending on the type and condition of the tiles, some homeowners opt for underlayment replacement while reusing their existing tiles. This cost-effective solution allows you to address the crucial structural problems while saving money, maintaining the aesthetic of your roof, and reducing disposal of good tiles before their time.

Benefits of Replacing Underlayment and Reusing Tiles

Cost Savings – Avoid the expense of purchasing new tiles by reusing those in good condition.
Preserve Aesthetic Appeal – Maintain the original look of your roof, which is especially important for custom or discontinued tile styles.
Sustainable Choice – Reduce waste by repurposing durable roofing materials.
Extended Roof Lifespan – New underlayment provides improved water resistance and durability.

Ideal Tile Types for Reuse

Certain tile materials are more suitable for removal and reinstallation during underlayment replacement:

Clay Tiles – Highly durable and reusable if carefully handled.
Concrete Tiles – Strong and versatile, making them excellent candidates for reinstallation.
Slate Tiles – Long-lasting and reusable but require careful handling due to their fragility.
