How We Work in Ontario

Our tile crews are trained specifically in Southern California tile systems and carry extensive inventories of common tile profiles for matching repairs. Ontario’s booming Ontario Ranch master-planned community has produced thousands of new tile-roof homes requiring maintenance and occasional repair. We are familiar with the HOA standards in these communities and the specific tile profiles used by regional builders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my home's structure strong enough for tile roofing?

Concrete and clay tiles are significantly heavier than shingles. Before installation we evaluate your roof framing. Most homes built after 1980 in Southern California are designed for tile. Older homes may need a structural assessment first.

How long does a tile roof last in Southern California?

Concrete tile typically lasts 40–50 years. Clay tile can last 60 years or more. The underlayment beneath the tile usually needs replacement after 20–25 years even if the tiles themselves look fine.

Can broken tiles be replaced without replacing the whole roof?

Yes. Individual broken or slipped tiles can be replaced. We work hard to match existing tile profiles and colors. In some cases, exact matches are no longer manufactured — we will tell you upfront if that is the situation.

Is tile roofing more fire resistant than shingles?

Yes. Concrete and clay tile are non-combustible and typically carry a Class A fire rating — the highest rating available. This can also reduce homeowner insurance premiums in wildfire-prone areas of Southern California.

How do I know if my tile roof needs underlayment replacement?

Signs include leaks with no visible cracked tiles, water stains in the attic, or a roof that is 20+ years old. We can inspect the underlayment through a tile lift — a non-invasive process that checks conditions without a full tear-off.
