Tile Roof Replacement

Cracked, slipped or missing tiles, broken ridge pieces, or leaks under a tile surface that looks intact can mean the underlayment beneath has worn out. In Stamford, CT, freeze and thaw cycles and ice along the eaves add stress, so the contractor checks the layers under the tiles, not only the tiles.

A tile roof inspection may include
Inspection of the tiles, underlayment, battens, flashing, ridge and hip details, and the roof framing. Clay and concrete tile are heavy, so the contractor checks whether the structure can carry them; synthetic tile is lighter and may suit roofs that cannot.

Plan before winter
Planning in drier months gives time to order matching tile, confirm the framing, and get the building permit a full replacement needs before winter snow and ice arrive.

Call about a tile roof and describe the tile type, any broken pieces, and where water has come in.
