How it runs
Our Tile Roof Installation Process
Tile installation is complex and takes skilled labor. Here’s how the job runs.
Structure Check
Tiles are heavy, so we check that the roof structure can support the weight.
Tile Selection
You choose the tile, color and style, with guidance on weight, cost and upkeep.
Careful Installation
Skilled installers lay the tiles in rows, taking care not to break any along the way.
Final Check
The crew checks the finished roof for broken or loose tiles, then cleans up.
Step one is a look at your roof structure. The estimate is free.
