Tile Roofing

Distinctive Style, Exceptional Longevity

Concrete and clay tile roofing offers a distinctive aesthetic unlike any other material, the curved profile, the deep shadow lines, the unmistakable character. And unlike many materials that just look good, tile genuinely lasts: 40 to 50 years is typical for quality tile.

Tile is heavy. A structural assessment is always required before any tile installation to confirm your home's framing can support the added load. Vantek conducts this assessment as part of every tile estimate.

Before & After

See the difference

Drag the handle to see the same roof before and after. Every tile roofing job gets the same tear-off, the same materials and the same walkthrough before we collect a dollar.

  • 40–50 year service life. Quality concrete and clay tile frequently outlasts the underlayment beneath it.
  • 40 to 50 Year Lifespan. Frequently outlasts the underlayment beneath it.
  • Structural Assessment Included. Every tile estimate confirms your home can carry the material. No guessing.
  • Low Maintenance. Inspect and replace cracked tiles; the underlayment is the wear layer, not the tile.

FAQ

Tile Roofing Questions

Cost, weight, longevity, and how tile performs in the Pacific Northwest. Call us if you want to discuss whether tile is the right fit for your home.

How much does tile roofing cost? +
Concrete tile roofing in King County typically ranges from $25,000 to $50,000 for a standard home. Clay tile and premium imported tile products can cost considerably more. The main cost drivers are the tile product selected, roof pitch and complexity, and any structural work required to support the additional weight of tile versus lighter roofing materials.
How long does tile roofing last? +
Concrete tile typically lasts 40 to 50 years. Clay tile can last 50 to 100 years or more. The tile itself rarely fails. The most common points of failure in a tile roof are the underlayment and flashing, which can be replaced at the midpoint of the tile's life without replacing the tiles. This is what makes tile such a strong long-term investment.
Can my home's structure support a tile roof? +
Tile is significantly heavier than asphalt. Concrete tile weighs roughly 9 to 12 pounds per square foot versus 2 to 3 pounds for asphalt shingles. We assess the structural capacity of every home before a tile project to confirm the framing can support the load. In some cases minor reinforcement is required, which we account for in the estimate before any commitment is made.
What happens if an individual tile breaks? +
Individual tiles can be replaced without replacing the whole roof, which is one of the major advantages of tile roofing. The key is sourcing a matching tile. We keep records of the product installed for every job so future replacements are straightforward. For older roofs a close match is almost always available, and the slight variation in weathering typically blends within a season.
Does tile roofing hold up in the Pacific Northwest climate? +
Tile performs well in mild, wet climates like ours. The main concern in colder regions is freeze-thaw cycling, which can cause tile to crack over time. The Bellevue and King County area does not typically experience the severe freeze-thaw conditions that cause tile problems in colder climates. Tile also naturally resists moss better than asphalt due to its surface density and higher pH.
