Roof Replacement

Knowing when to replace your current tile roofing system is key. If you notice more than a few of your tiles are broken, then you need to consider replacing your entire roof. It is simply not cost-effective to try and repair your current roof without knowing the condition of your tile underlayment system. Roof tiles are not waterproof systems, so the tile underlayment system is key to make sure that the roof is watertight and efficient. Oftentimes, the problem occurs with the underlayment system where it fails, meanwhile the tiles could be in good condition and have a couple of years left. You should also have the proper flashing installed for your tile systems that is important in determining the service life of your tile roof, that is where most of your leaks begin in a tile roof.
