Get away to an exotic location rich with visual appeal and culture by transforming your home with gorgeous Spanish clay tile roofing. Clay tile roofing is a classic construction material that has been used for thousands of years as a durable and sustainable roofing option, with early examples originating from China around 10,000 B.C. Today, clay tile is growing in popularity for home and property owners because of not only its design-conscious craftsmanship, but also its rich color, stunning appearance and long-lasting qualities that alternative roofing solutions don’t possess.

Clay tile roofs aren't just a simple shelter from the sun and rain — they're a charming, durable and environmentally-friendly structure. Before buying a house with a clay roof, however, you should be prepared for the costs and labor it may require. 

With constant exposure to damaging elements like direct sunlight, moisture, storms and other natural elements, over time, homeowners may find signs of inconvenient, unattractive and costly roof leaks. This can be frustrating, because signs of roof damage and leaks aren’t always obvious, and avoiding roof repairs can lead to structural and water damages as well as unwanted mold growth. If you suspect your roof may be leaking from a recent storm or other event, you can quickly and easily examine your home and roof to find the source of the leak and prevent extensive and expensive damages.

If you need a new roof for your home, estate or historical property, consider a custom metal roof. Metal roofs have many advantages over more traditional materials, and we have the expertise and experience to provide the information and quality work you need.

With 40 years of experience supplying custom roofing solutions to discerning homeowners, we’re often asked, “Does replacing the roof increase the resale value of your home?” Of course, we’re not in the real estate business, but because we regularly observe both the satisfaction to homeowners and the value to properties that new roofs bring, we feel we’re in a unique position to objectively answer that question.

As with any roofing material, you should factor slate roof pros and cons into your list of considerations when you purchase a home with slate roofing. For starters, you need to consider slate roof life expectancy in relation to the age of the house.

For anyone who has needed to replace their roof, one of the biggest concerns is whether a different type of roofing will last longer and ultimately be more worth the investment. When a homeowner ends up replacing a roof on more than one occasion, the question becomes even more pressing. This leads people to ask about more long-lasting types of roofing, such as metal, slate and clay.
