Why Choose a Tile Roof

If you’re in the market for a new roof, here are some reasons why tile roofing may be the right choice for you.

Long Lasting

The lifespan of a tile roof can span from at least 50 years to upwards of a whole century, as long as it’s properly cared for. You won’t have to worry about rotting, warping, or distortion from excessive UV, all of which can be issues in Southern California. 

Extremely Durable

Tile roofing is up for the challenge of SoCal weather conditions, including high winds, high UV, and the occasional heavy rain. Tiles are also considered to be high-impact-rated and able to handle falling branches and other debris without serious damage.

Resistant to Fire

Since this area of the country is known for its fire risk, it’s important that your roof can hold up to potential fires. Choosing a tile roof can help save your roof in the event of a fire affecting your home.

Energy Efficient

This type of roofing is especially helpful when it comes to insulating your home so it stays cooler when it’s warm out and warmer when it’s cool out. Because of this, you may enjoy lower energy bills month to month.

Aesthetically Pleasing

Many love tile roofing for its classic appearance, as seen on many of the Mediterranean-style homes in the region. It’s also a popular choice for coastal-style or contemporary homes, however, since it comes in a range of colors and styles.
