Concrete roof tiles offer elegant, enduring aesthetics for house designs and improved marketability for the builder. They also provide greater protection to the homeowner, both as a noncombustible finish and for their contribution to thermal performance of the building envelope.
Tile with Style
Roof tiles come in many different patterns to complement any architectural style. Variations in color, texture, and profile can be consistently manufactured in factory settings for quality and performance.

Value
Many factors affect the cost of roofing, including initial material and installation costs. But a low maintenance, long lasting product can save money over the life of a home, and may increase resale value. Related aspects like fire resistance rating, cost of insurance, and thermal protection to the interior all add to concrete roof tile’s value as a roof cladding.
Concrete roof tiles are one way to express your individual style while adding to peace of mind.
