INSTALLATION OF TILE ROOFS IN NORTH TEXAS

Clay roof tiles have been used in the United States since the 1600s. During this time, big fires in Boston and New York led to the creation of fire codes that pushed for fireproof roofs. As a result of these laws, European settlers started bringing clay tiles to America. This made clay tile roofing a very popular choice.

Because they were easy to keep up, kept heat in, and lasted a long time, they were the most popular roofing material for almost two hundred years. Also, clay tiles have one of the longest expected lives of any roofing material, with some clay roofs lasting more than 100 years. Clay tiles are still a popular choice for roofs today.

EFFECT OF CLAY ROOFING ON HOUSE RESALE

It will cost about twice or three times as much as asphalt shingles, which makes it a big investment. But buyers will know that a clay tile roof doesn't need much maintenance and isn't likely to need to be replaced.

Clay tile roofs can weigh up to 850 pounds per square foot, so it's important that your home's structure is strong enough to hold that weight. If rebuilding is not an option, you can use concrete or fake clay tiles instead.

To put it simply, clay tiles are a beautiful choice for a roof. If it's installed correctly, with good flashing and underlayment, you won't have to replace it in your lifetime, and you won't have to do much maintenance either. And the best part is that you'll be very glad you have a clay roof when the high winds start to pick up during a storm.

HOW ENERGY EFFICIENT ARE CLAY TILE ROOFS?

Clay tile roofs are very energy efficient because several features work together to keep heat from getting into the attic. Airflow, thermal mass, thermal emittance, and solar reflectance are some of these. This will keep your house warm in the winter and cool during our long, hot summers. Also, clay tiles are made from natural materials and have no chemicals that are bad for you.
