Tile Roofing in Delano, California

The clay and the concrete tile roofs are built for the heat. The tile does not bake in the valley sun, and the air gap under the tile keeps the attic cooler. Tile roofing in Delano means the roof that handles the heat for decades.

Why Delano Homes Choose Tile Roofs

• Long lifespan — 40 to 50 years, the longest common option
• Heat resistance — the tile does not bake in the valley sun
• Classic look — the clay and the concrete tile suit the California style
• Winter rain protection — the tile sheds the water well
• Curb appeal — the tile roof lifts the look of the home

Why Tile Roofs Work in Delano

The heat is the reason. The tile roof does not absorb the valley heat the way the dark asphalt does, and the air gap under the tile keeps the attic cooler. The energy savings show up in the summer.

The tile also handles the wind. The clay and the concrete tile are heavy and nailed or clipped in place, and the valley gusts do not lift them the way they lift the loose shingles.

How We Install Tile Roofs in Delano

1. Check the framing — confirm the roof can carry the tile weight
2. Install the underlayment — the double layer protects the deck
3. Set the battens — the wood strips that hold the tile
4. Lay the tile — the clay or the concrete tile, nailed and clipped
5. Finish the ridge — the ridge tile and the hip details
