The rich history of a concrete tile roof is difficult to beat.

"THIS ROOF WON'T LEAK IN A MILLION YEARS."

Concrete roofing tile got it start in the late 1960's and have been racing towards the best roof system as time goes by.

Here is roof that was installed on a house in 1978 and is still going strong. Minor maintenance is needed and there has been no reports of leaking.

What we uncovered is that the over hang boards were a sub-standard pressed wood fiber that began to sag or droop.  This drooping condition was eliminated by replacing the eave boards using a half inch plywood.

New peel and stick hip and ridge seal tape was applied in place of the old fashioned roof mortar.  A quick drying spray primer was used to develop a positive attachment to the 40-year old tiles.

Old fashioned roof mortar is always a great addition to the wall-to-roof- locations where sheet lead could have been used but was not.

This method will plug or, block-off the gaps to help prevent blowing rain from getting behind the roofing tiles.
