Tile & Clay Roofing Installation, Repairs & Re-felting

Tile roofing is an architectural signature of Northern California architecture, renowned for its timeless beauty, class-A fire rating, and exceptional lifespan. More Quality Roofing specializes in concrete, clay, and Spanish S-tile installations, as well as critical tile resets and underlayment replacements.

While clay and concrete tiles themselves offer long-lasting durability, the waterproof underlayment beneath them can degrade over decades of high attic heat. Our experienced crew carefully lifts and preserves your existing tile, installs heavy-duty dual-layer synthetic underlayment, repairs flashing and valleys, and reinstalls tiles with precision fastening.

01

Natural Thermal Insulation

Tile roofs create an air cushion above the roof deck that naturally disperses heat, keeping your home cooler and reducing air conditioning bills in Bay Area summers.

02

Maximum Fire & Weather Defense

Tile systems offer non-combustible Class-A fire resistance, hail resistance, and exceptional durability against heavy winter rains and Santa Clara valley winds.

03

Tile Lift & Re-felting Specialists

Save thousands compared to total replacement. If your tiles are structurally sound, we lift them, install modern high-grade underlayment, and re-lay the tiles seamlessly.

04

Structural Load Verification

Tile roofing requires proper structural load capacity. We inspect rafters, battens, and trusses to verify proper structural load capacity and California code compliance.

Our Tile Roofing Installation & Restoration Process

01

Structural & Batten Check

We evaluate your roof framing, decking, and battens to confirm weight tolerance and integrity.

02

Careful Tile Removal

For re-felts, tiles are carefully cataloged and salvaged to minimize material replacement costs.

03

Dual Underlayment & Flashing

We install premium SBS-modified underlayment, fresh copper/galvanized valleys, and edge metal.

04

Precision Lay & Mortar Pointing

Tiles are securely reinstalled with weather-sealed ridge caps and mortar work for clean finish.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tile Roofs

Why is my tile roof leaking if the tiles aren’t broken?
Tile acts as a water-shedding shield, but the actual waterproofing barrier is the felt underlayment underneath. Over decades of heat cycles, older paper felt dries out, cracks, and deteriorates, requiring a professional "lift and re-felt" restoration.
What is the difference between concrete tile and clay tile?
Clay tiles are molded from natural earth and baked at high temperatures, offering iconic Mediterranean look and decades of colorfastness. Concrete tiles are crafted from sand, cement, and water, offering outstanding durability and versatile profiles at a slightly lower material cost.
Can cracked or broken tiles be replaced individually?
Yes. We provide spot repairs and replacement for damaged or displaced tiles, matching profiles and securing them properly to stop localized leaks.
