What happens when your roof tiles crack or need replacing, but the manufacturer no longer makes that style? This is where it pays to hire a roofer who not only has the right expertise but also access to discontinued roof tiles.
Why It Makes Sense
Concrete roof tiles are a solid choice for homeowners because they’re a great long-term investment. They typically last over 50 years, much longer than other roofing materials, and they’re also resistant to fire, high winds, pests, and rot.
While they are quite durable, they’re not maintenance-free. Homeowners can end up with cracked or broken tiles, slipped tiles, worn-out elements or an aging underlayment. But because the life expectancy of a concrete tile is so long, manufacturers frequently discontinue colors, shapes, or styles long before it's time for a roof replacement. That makes it difficult and costly to handle any repairs you might need before then.
That’s why hiring a roofer with access to discontinued roof tiles is key. It not only removes the headache and reduces the cost of sourcing materials on your own, but also serves to preserve the look of your home and extend the life of your roof.
Save Time
A roofer with supplier relationships and stockpiles can save you from weeks of frustration searching salvage yards, calling suppliers, or scouring online marketplaces.
When you hire Casas Roof, you get access to our exclusive selection of discontinued tiles, including rare and hard-to-find brands such as Monier, Lifestyle, and Marley. Few San Diego contractors have this resource.
Save Money
Roofers with access to discontinued roof tiles can obtain them at a lower cost than what homeowners would pay when sourcing them on their own. There’s no reason to overpay when a roofer can source them affordably.
Preserve Your Home’s Value
Mismatched tiles on your roof are not only an eyesore, but they can impact the value of your home should you decide to sell. Matching the original color, size, and profile maintains aesthetic appeal.
Protect Your Home From Damage
Tiles that differ in weight, shape, or density can create weaknesses or leave gaps that allow water to penetrate the roof deck, leading to leaks, rot, and other types of damage.
Properly matched concrete tiles help preserve the structural integrity of your roof, which in turn helps you avoid costly roof repairs or the need for a full replacement.
How to Find the Right Roofer
What questions should you ask a roofer to find one with both expertise in concrete tiles and access to discontinued ones? Here’s a guide:
- How many years of experience do you have working with concrete tiles?
- Can you show examples of tile-matching projects you’ve completed?
- Do you have reliable sources for discontinued or hard-to-find tiles?
- What suppliers do you work with, or what stockpiles do you have access to?
- Is your work backed by a warranty or workmanship guarantee?
And, of course, it’s always good to check that the roofer you’re working with has the proper licensing, insurance, and warranties.
