Tile Roof

TILE Roof

DR Construction & Roofing installs, repairs and replaces clay and concrete tile roofs across South Florida. We inspect tiles, underlayment and the roof deck, then explain the scope your roof needs. Tile replacement and underlayment work are different from fixing a few damaged tiles; an inspection helps establish the right approach.

Tile roofs are why Florida homes last. Clay and concrete tiles withstand 150+ mph winds, reflect solar heat, and last 50 years or more with proper maintenance. We install, repair, and replace tile roofing systems across South Florida.

What's included in Tile Roof

  • Concrete and Clay Tile Installation: New tile installation with proper battens, underlayment, and wind-rated fastening to resist hurricane-force winds.
  • Underlayment Replacement (Tile Re-Lay): Removing existing tiles, replacing the waterproofing layer beneath, and re-installing the original tiles when they are in good condition.
  • Broken Tile Replacement: Matching and replacing individual broken or cracked tiles with correct profile, color, and installation method.
  • Valley and Flashing Work: Proper valley liner installation and flashing at all penetrations and wall intersections, the areas where most tile roof leaks originate.
  • Ridge Cap Installation: Setting ridge and hip cap tiles with mortar or mechanical fasteners per current Florida Building Code requirements.

Our Tile Roof process

  1. Free Tile Roof Inspection: We inspect tiles, underlayment, flashings, and fasteners. Tiles that look fine from the ground may have hidden underlayment failure beneath them.
  2. Assessment and Options: We determine if you need tile replacement, underlayment replacement (with tile re-lay), or targeted repair. Each option is priced separately.
  3. HOA Coordination: We prepare and submit the architectural review application to your HOA with material specifications and color samples.
  4. Permitting: We pull the required permit through your local building department and schedule all inspections.
  5. Tile Installation or Re-Lay: Our crew installs new tile or carefully removes, replaces underlayment, and re-lays existing tile. Every tile is secured to the Florida Building Code wind standards for your county.
  6. Inspection and Warranty: Building department final inspection followed by our own quality check. Warranty documentation provided for both materials and labor.
