  • Concrete roof tile was originally developed in Bavaria about 150 years ago, and is now used throughout Europe. Over the last few decades it has also become quite popular in the U.S., particularly in the Southeast, the Southwest, and California. Tile is available in a wide variety of shapes, textures, and colors to suit most any architectural style. The durable tiles carry a Class A fire rating, resist damage from hail, and reduce heat transfer through the roof system. Though considerably more expensive than asphalt shingles, concrete roof tile has a life span of at least 50 years, which reduces its lifecycle cost.
