Tile Roofing in Oro Valley, Arizona

Tile roofing is the classic choice for the Arizona desert. The clay and the concrete tile have been the standard for the Southwestern homes for generations. Tile roofing in Oro Valley means the roof that reflects the heat, withstands the sun, and lasts for the lifetime of the home.

Signs Your Oro Valley Tile Roof Needs Service

• Cracked or broken tiles — the monsoon hail or the foot traffic has damaged the pieces
• Missing tiles — the wind has lifted the individual tiles
• Leaks at the flashings — the tile itself is not the problem, the underlayment or the flashing is
• Granules or debris in the gutters — the concrete tile is wearing
• Moss or algae on the north slope — the rare growth in the shaded areas

Why Oro Valley Homes Choose Tile

The lifespan is the main reason. The clay tile roof lasts 50–100 years. The home in Oro Valley will not need another roof. The tile is the one-time investment that pays for itself over the decades.

The heat reflection is the second reason. The tile reflects the sun and the attic stays cooler. The cooling costs are lower with the tile roof than with the dark asphalt shingles.

How We Install Tile Roofs in Oro Valley

1. Inspect the roof structure — the tile is heavy and the framing must support the weight
2. Install the underlayment — the double layer of the underlayment for the extra protection
3. Install the battens — the horizontal strips that support the tile
4. Lay the tile — the clay or the concrete tile in the staggered pattern
5. Flash the penetrations — the chimney, the vents, and the skylights

Preventing Problems on Tile Roofs in Oro Valley

• Inspect the roof after every monsoon — the hail can crack the tiles and the wind can lift them
• Check the underlayment when the tiles are damaged — the underlayment is the waterproof layer
• Walk on the tile only when necessary — the tile is brittle under the foot traffic
• Keep the gutters clean — the debris holds the moisture against the tile
